Austria
Yes? Then one, or more than likely BOTH of the following workshops (as they complement each other), are essential for you to attend:
FINANCE IN FP7 - with guest auditor: Wednesday 21 September 2011
COORDINATING FP7 RESEARCH PROJECTS: Thursday 22 September 2011
FINANCE: Framework Seven (FP7) brings with it extensive financial rules, which cover everything from eligible costs to interest earned on advance payments, from payment terms to penalties, from subcontracting to social costs. This workshop addresses the financial rules and practices of the Cooperation and Capacities Programmes of FP7. Through lectures and exercises, it will give you a practical interpretation of the EU financial rules and guidelines drawing on real experience.
Our guest auditor, presenting the final session of the day, will be Julian Rummins, partner at Littlejohn LLP, chartered accountants. As part of the Polaris consortium of auditors, Littlejohn have audited projects in FP6, FP5 and FP4 on behalf of the European Commission. Julian has over 12 years experience and 3000 assignments behind him, and so possesses an in-depth knowledge of the many issues encountered and consequent errors made by FP participants across Europe in reporting their project costs
COORDINATING: The workshop covers both the formal basis of the project from contracts to reporting and review, and the practicalities of coordinating a multi-partner, multi-country project to deliver the results promised in the proposal. The workshop is aimed at research managers and administrators coordinating EU collaborative research projects. It is also suitable for those managing their organisation’s participation in EU collaborative projects, or developing the management section of proposals for these projects.
Both of the workshops will be held in Brussels, Belgium and will be limited to 24 participants each to allow high levels of interaction and plenty of time for questions.
