New e-learning course Contractual Relationships in HE projects

12/02/2025

In the NCP Virtual Campus, a new course Contractual Relationships in HE projects was published. It covers the aspects of most frequently used contracts - Grant Agreement, Consortium Agreement and other contracts between beneficiaries, contracts with third parties and contracts used in ERC grants and MSCA projects. The course was produced by the project Horizon Academy-NCP4HE.

In the second half of 2024, other courses were published in the Virtual Campus:

  • EIC Accelerator basics (produced by the project Access2EIC)
  • Writing the impact section in HE proposals (produced by Horizon Academy)
  • Gender dimension in R&I for Horizon Europe NCPs (produced by the project GENDERACTIONplus)
  • Reading a thematic work programme and a call topic (produced by the Global Service Facility)
  • International cooperation in Horizon Europe - legal and financial (produced by Global Service Facility)
  • Pathways and tools for better integration in EU R&I networks (produced by Global Service Facility)
  • Supporting clients as an EU Missions NCP: Basic Knowledge (produced by the project NCP4Missions).

A total of 21 courses have been created so far. The courses include presentations, videos, links to additional information sources, and test questions to verify acquired knowledge. Although they are designed with the needs of newly nominated NCPs in mind, they are also freely accessible to the general public and serve as a useful resource for those interested in participating in HE projects.

To take the courses, you must have an account in the Academy. If you do not have one yet, please register here.

Besides courses, other activities and events are also presented on the Horizon Europe NCP Portal.
