Internal funding can help prepare for external funding

A series of workshops and tailored events will be offered over the coming year. Please let Julie Doyle know, whatever career stage you are at, if there are specific topics that you would like to see as a workshop or event that would help you with your bidding or knowledge exchange activities -e.g. how to start? Specific funders, reworking unsuccessful bids, etc.

In the meantime, please email Julie Doyle todiscuss any funding or knowledge exchange ideas you might have.
