This online training will support you in the process of writing a competitive proposal for the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Postdoctoral Fellowship, with focus on the call 2025.

The training consists of two consecutive online sessions, complemented by short e-learning inputs and reflection exercises before and during the training.
We will cover important issues to keep in mind when writing a good proposal, from “Excellence” and “Impact” to “Implementation”. You will learn about topics like the evaluation process and open science and get the chance to discuss with a Postdoctoral Fellow and an MSCA evaluator. 
After the training, you will have a good understanding of the rationale of the programme and you will have the tools to start writing your own proposal. 

Time & date of the online sessions:
13.05.2025, 10 a.m. – 2.30 p.m. CET and
14.05.2025, 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. CET

Additional time investment: 

  • Preparation before the training: about 4 hours
  • Exercises between first and second day of the training: about 1 hour

Site: ONLINE, via Zoom

The training is specifically designed for researchers planning to submit a proposal in the next call for Postdoctoral Fellowships (deadline 10 September 2025), together with a host located in Austria. Non-applicants (research support units or similar) are welcome to participate as well, provided there are still places available.

For supervisors planning to host postdoctoral fellows we are offering a separate event on 3 June 2025.
Participation is free of charge. The training will be held in English.
