The workshop will address issues such as clear communication of ideas, evaluation criteria and common pitfalls.
A workshop on 'Negotiating and administering EU research contracts' will take place on 22 January 2002. It will provide an overview of the Commission contract negotiation process and the subsequent administration of the contract, it is aimed at all who intend to participate in EU-funded RTD projects.
On 14 March 2002, a workshop will be held on the subject of 'Managing EC research projects.'
