Wed, 29 th September 2010 IUA Presentation 7 Objectives of the ITNs Directed at Early Stage Researchers –Strengthen and structure initial training of researchers at European level –Attract students to scientific careers –Improve career perspectives by broad skills development (including private sector needs)

Wed, 29 th September 2010 IUA Presentation 8 Main features International network of participants Joint Research Training Programme: –Training through research –Complementary competences modules –Exposure to both public and private sectors Industry involvement Mutual recognition of the quality of the training Grant agreements with Commission for four years, max. duration of fellowships 3 years

Wed, 29 th September 2010 IUA Presentation 9 Research areas Bottom-up approach Evaluation carried out in panels (applicant data 2009): –Chemistry (9.7%) –Social and Human Sciences (10.2%) –Economic Sciences (2.4%) –Information Science and Engineering (20.7%) –Environmental and Geo-sciences (12.2%) –Life Sciences (30%) –Mathematics (2.1%) –Physics (12.7%)

Wed, 29 th September 2010 IUA Presentation 10 Who are the participants? Organisations that are actively involved in research and/or research training: –Universities/Institutes of Technology –Private and public research institutes –Companies big and small –International Organisations (CERN, UNESCO, …) –The European Commission’s Joint Research Centre –NGO’s –Etc.

Wed, 29 th September 2010 IUA Presentation 11 Which countries can they come from? 27 Member States (MS) 12 Associated Countries (AC) –Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, Israel, Switzerland, Albania, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Croatia, FYR Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia, Turkey Third Countries (TC) –More than 140 International Cooperation Partner Countries (ICPC) – can receive funding –Other Third Countries (OTC) – normally self funded

Wed, 29 th September 2010 IUA Presentation 12 Types of ITNs NB: There are no “twinnings” anymore (ITNs with two partners). No more than 40% of the total EC contribution may be allocated to the benefit of organisations within one country in Multi-site ITNs. Type of ITNCountry of Participant(s) Multi-site ITN ≥3 Participants from 3 different countries (MS or AC) - Additional Participants: MS, AC, ICPC or OTC* * Funded only if a special agreement between the country and the EU or in very exceptional cases Mono-site ITN Requires very well established network of transnational collaborations! 1 Participant from MS or AC

Wed, 29 th September 2010 IUA Presentation 13 Partner status Full Network Partners Offer research training & recruit eligible researchers Level 1 Associated Partners Provide research training, complementary skills courses, (communication, enterprise cycles, innovation, IPR, …) secondments Level 2 Members of Supervisory Board (all Partners, additional external experts can be added) Definition of skills requirements for targeted researchers, ensuring adequate balance between scientific and technological training and complementary skills training NB: Industry (private commercial) partners must be included at the highest possible level (Level 1 unless very well justified, in which case Level 2 will suffice).

Wed, 29 th September 2010 IUA Presentation 14 Private sector participation At the highest possible level Expected minimum involvement of industry is Level 2 (it is NOT enough to include industry in the Supervisory Board!) Clear evidence of the commitment of industry to be included in proposal (for Associated Partners letters of commitment signed by CEO / Director, not just Head of Research Department – should clearly spell out in which way the partner will contribute to the training programme)

Wed, 29 th September 2010 IUA Presentation 15 Eligible researchers ≥ 1 month Multiple stays Experienced researchers (experience >> 4 years) with outstanding stature in international training and collaborative research Visiting scientists (a limited number) 3-24 months PhD or at least 4 years of research experience & Research experience ≤ 5 years Experienced researchers 3-36 months 0 ≤ Research experience ≤ 4 years No PhD Early stage researchers (≥ 80%) Duration of appointments Eligibility Criteria at the time of recruitment INITIAL TRAINING Transfer of NEW COMPETENCES

Wed, 29 th September 2010 IUA Presentation 16 Transnational mobility Researchers can be nationals of any country (no nationality criterion anymore) But: Nationals of Third Countries can only be recruited by hosts located in MS or AC Researchers must not have resided or carried out their main activity in the country of the host for more than 12 months in the 3 years immediately prior to their recruitment Special rules in case of International organisations as host institutions

Wed, 29 th September 2010 IUA Presentation 17 Role of visiting scientists Complement the network’s capacity to transfer new knowledge Strengthen supervision of the network-wide training activities Exceptional and duly justified, with explicit reference to the punctual training events he/she will provide or organise Reasonable duration of appointment

Wed, 29 th September 2010 IUA Presentation 18 Typical ITN activities Training Networking International conferences, workshops and other training and dissemination events (can / should to some extent be open to external researchers)

Wed, 29 th September 2010 IUA Presentation 19 Training activities Training on scientific and technological knowledge through research: individual personalised projects within the framework of the research topics defined by the network Provision of structured training courses: tutoring, lecture courses, teaching –Available either locally or from another participant of the network –Local training programmes to be coordinated to maximise added value

Wed, 29 th September 2010 IUA Presentation 20 Training activities Intersectorial visits and secondments Development of network-wide training activities : workshops, summer schools –Exploitation of the interdisciplinary and intersectoral aspects of the project –Exposure of the participants to different schools of thought –Provide complementary training in IPR, project management, presentation skills, language courses, ethics, communication, entrepreneurship, proposal writing, task coordination… –Coordinated by a clearly identified Supervisory Board

Wed, 29 th September 2010 IUA Presentation 21 Training activities Personal Career Development Plan –For researchers recruited for ≥ 6 months Early Post-Docs –Intersectoral or interdisciplinary Transfer of Knowledge –Taking part in the management of the research project –Organisation of training events Training objective: to make them more independent and to provide them with the skills to become team leaders in the near future

Wed, 29 th September 2010 IUA Presentation 22 Networking activities Organisation of scientific/managerial network meetings Invitation of external experts Attendance at international conferences and workshops Electronic networking Collaboration with other ITNs Organisation of a final network conference

Friday, 18 th September 2009 IUA Presentation 23 International training and dissemination events International conferences, workshops, seminars, summer schools, etc. Should provide an opportunity to –exchange knowledge with more experienced researchers –disseminate the skills and knowledge of the network –should at least to some extent be open to external researchers

Friday, 18 th September 2009 IUA Presentation 24 Supervisory Board Clearly identified Ensures that scientific and technological training is balanced with complementary skills training Composed of representatives of each of the participants in the network as well as external representatives Industry involvement

Community contributions Living allowance* € 38,000 / 19,000 per year (ESR: post-graduates) € 58,500 / 29,250 per year (ER: 4-10 years) € 87,500 / 43,750 per year (MER: > 10 years) Mobility / travel allowance* € 700 or 1000 per month Research/training/networking costs € 1800 per researcher-month Small equipment expenses for SMEs max. 10 % of SME contribution Overheads 10% of direct costs Management costs max. 10% of total contribution Gross amounts (rates for 2010) *Correction Coefficients apply; IE = Fellow expenses Host expenses
