Dear Colleagues/Forum Members:

You are invited to participate in the National Science Foundation (NSF) Electronic Research Administration (ERA) Forum Webinar on March 15, 2017 from 10:00-11:30 a.m. ET. To participate in this Forum, please Register Now.

The purpose of the Forum is to gather individual opinions and perspectives around NSF ERA activities. This Forum also will be used to present proposed solutions, collect feedback, understand how solutions may impact the community, and solicit volunteers for testing.

The topic of the third ERA Forum will be NSF’s Proposal Submission Modernization (PSM) initiative. PSM is a multi-year effort to modernize and migrate proposal preparation and submission capabilities from FastLane to Research.gov.  This Forum will specifically focus on Sponsored Projects Office (SPO) and Authorized Organizational Representative (AOR) access and activities.

For more information about this NSF ERA Forum, please visit the DIAS/Policy Office website at https://www.nsf.gov/bfa/dias/policy/era_forum.jsp.  This Forum will have a limited number of spaces available. Please register early, and we encourage you to rally in groups for the WebEx session to maximize participation.

To sign up for future ERA Forum notifications, please send an email to NSF-ERA-FORUM-subscribe-request@listserv.nsf.gov.

We look forward to your participation.

Best,

Jean
