Members of the EVOLTREE network are eligible for reimbursement of training costs of up to EUR 600. To apply for reimbursement, please send an application letter at least 30 days before the training, but no more than 60 days before the training, explaining why the training is useful to you. Include your name, the organisation you work for and your career stage (PhD student, postdoc, researcher). Send the application letter to Marjana Westergren and Lidwina Koop and specify the name of the training in the title line of your email.

Not sure if you are from an EVOLTREE member organisation? Then check the EVOLTREE partner list.

Applicants will be selected for reimbursement based on the following criteria:

  • Application letter
  • Acceptance to the training pending the decision of the organiser
  • Equal distribution of reimbursements among EVOLTREE members
  • Priority will be given to early career researchers
  • Priority will be given to applicants who haven't received a reimbursement in the previous year

One grant is available per EVOLTREE member and training course, unless there are fewer members applying than there are refunds available.

If awarded a training reimbursement, more information of how to claim the reimbursement are listed here.

You can register for a training course directly with the course organiser without requesting reimbursement from EVOLTREE. Please also note that applying for reimbursement does not mean that you have registered for the training course.
