Upcoming GrantForward Workshops to Continue
The GrantForward Workshops on March 17 and 25 will continue as scheduled. They are hosted by the Office of the Vice Chancellor for Research and Innovation to introduce potential users to the various features and capabilities of a new grant recommendation service.
The platform is called "GrantForward" and will replace the similar service known as "Pivot." GrantForward allows users to create a personal profile that highlights their research achievements and specifies their research interests to receive personalized grant recommendations that match their research funding needs.
Participants are encouraged to register online in advance to ensure that the number of attendees does not exceed University policy during the virus alert. It is also recommended to bring a laptop to the session they attend. Workshop schedule with times and locations listed below.
GrantForward Workshops
- Tuesday, March 17 — Arkansas Union 305 from 1 to 3 p.m.
- Wednesday, March 25 — Arkansas Union 305 from 9 to 11 a.m.
Please contact Carri George with any questions regarding the workshops. For more information, visit the VCRI website.
