I know.
The deadline for Standard Research Grants isn’t until the middle of October. And it’s only January.
But January might be a good time to take the first tiny baby step towards getting ready for the possibility that you might someday apply for a grant.
Do you have questions?
I used to work for SSHRC. I was a program officer with the SRG program.
And, since 2005, I’ve been giving presentations about grants and helping researchers write better grant proposals.
I don’t work for your university.
I don’t work for SSHRC.
So I have no stake in whether you apply or not. And my opinion of you has no bearing on whether you get a grant, or a promotion or whatever.
And I can probably answer whatever questions you have.
Interested?
I’m answering questions by phone on January 19th @ 1 p.m. EST
It will only cost you the price of a long distance call, which might not be anything depending on your long distance plan or whether you call from work.
I’ll record the call. So if you can’t make the time or want to listen to it again later because you realized that that one question someone asked was really good but you forgot the answer, you’re covered.
And yes, if you are shy about asking on the call or can’t make it but have a question, you can send your question in advance.
Remember. There are no stupid questions.
Talk to you soon.
