The objective of this scheme is to fund joint research training programmes in European research consortia. The main aim is to support the structured initial training of doctoral students. Postdoctoral students however can also be funded to a minor extend. Eligible consortia must be composed of at least three participants (e.g. universities, public non- commercial research centres, businesses, SMEs, non-profit or charitable organisations, etc.) established in at least three different EU-Member States or Associated Countries. Above this minimum, the participation of partners from Third Countries and of international organisations is also possible. Under certain conditions there is also the possibility for so called monosite- consortia composed of a sole participant and a network of associated partners to apply. The sole participant shall then be established in an EU-Member State or Associated Country. It should be noted that for both multi- and monosite-consortia that the European Commission explicitely demands adequate industry participation in the consortium and in the training programme.
The available budget amounts to €318 million.
