The FP7 Coach: vehicle to success
Built around six distinctive phases that are valid for each FP7 project, The FP7 Coach: vehicle to success will tell researchers and others interested in obtaining funding for their research from the Seventh Framework Programme, how to prepare a proposal that will maximise their chances of success. In addition, this book describes how – once a contract has been established with the Commission – to carry out complex matters such as project management, administrative, legal, and regulatory aspects: administrative and financial burdens that can become a bureaucratic nightmare if the rules of the game are neglected, ignored, or misunderstood. With the aid of The FP7 Coach: vehicle to success, researchers and research managers will be able to spend more time working on their projects, instead of worrying about administrative duties and paper work.
- Clear flow charts, tables and checklists help to absorb the information quickly and to understand the links between the different sections, thus ensuring that the big picture remains visible, whilst essential details will be provided.
- With contributions from experienced and successful proposal writers, The FP7 Coach: vehicle to success brings practical hands-on guidance to proposers, thus enabling them to increase the quality of their proposed ideas and make the proposal writing process more efficient.
Real-world examples provide a comprehensive help and an inspiring source of ideas on how to present information in a succinct and persuasive manner, thus increasing the probability of getting the proposal funded.
Where further understanding on certain subjects can be useful or desirable, detailed appendices are included for those who want to dig deeper.
