At UCC Academy we provide post-award Project Management and Impact services on national and European funded projects. Our team has extensive project management and communications experience in successfully supporting research projects led by UCC.

For further information on how UCC Academy can support you, please contact academyresearch@ucc.ie

Key post-award services:

• Consortium management and workshop facilitation
• Project monitoring and tracking
• Risk management
• Financial monitoring and reporting
• Compliance with funding body requirements
• Event planning, management and administration
• Communication, Dissemination and Exploitation plan development and implementation
• Website and social media management
• Open Science management

Where UCC Academy is providing post-award Project Management support (should a proposal be successful), we can also provide pre-award supports including:

• Set-up of document management and consortium collaboration tool e.g. Microsoft Sharepoint site
• Assistance with set-up and submission of project proposal on funding agency platform e.g. EU Funding & Tenders Portal
• Assistance with completion of administrative aspects of project proposal submission e.g. Part A for EU-funded proposals
• Editing, proofreading and formatting of project proposal drafts

The Enterprise Ireland Coordinator Support grant can be used to cover our costs on these pre-award activities.

This pre-award support depends on our team capacity as we balance our post-award projects. Please contact academyresearch@ucc.ie as early in the pre-award process as possible so that we can scope out the level of support we can provide.
