Horizon Europe proposal training

Prepare stronger Horizon Europe proposals. With AI used carefully.

Hands-on training for the people developing, coordinating, and contributing to Horizon Europe proposals. Teams work with a real call, draft, or consortium challenge while learning where AI can help — and where expert judgment must remain in control.

Proposal workflow

From call text to submission readiness.

Choose the stages that matter most to your team. The program stays practical, modular, and grounded in the requirements of the call you are working on.

01

Interpret the call

Extract scope, expected outcomes, eligibility, evaluation criteria, and obligations from calls and work programmes.

02

Assess fit

Pressure-test the topic, map strengths and gaps, and turn funder language into a clear proposal strategy.

03

Shape the consortium

Clarify partner roles, identify missing capabilities, and develop a coherent contribution across work packages.

04

Develop the narrative

Strengthen Excellence, Impact, and Implementation sections while keeping claims, evidence, and voice under human control.

05

Review and verify

Check the draft against evaluation criteria, test consistency, surface unsupported claims, and simulate reviewer questions.

06

Prepare the team

Create reusable review, compliance, and follow-up workflows for the final stages before submission.

Beyond university research offices

For organizations participating in Horizon Europe.

The focused Horizon Europe program can be shaped for organizations coordinating proposals, contributing as partners, or supporting applicants.

Research institutes

For proposal development teams, principal investigators, and research-support staff.

Public bodies

For municipalities, agencies, and public-sector teams contributing policy, services, data, or demonstration sites.

NGOs & nonprofits

For mission-led organizations translating field expertise and stakeholder access into a strong consortium role.

Healthcare & innovation organizations

For hospitals, innovation hubs, clusters, and applied-research teams working across disciplines.

SMEs & industry partners

For teams defining their contribution, exploitation role, evidence, and work-package responsibilities.

Coordinators & consortium teams

For distributed teams aligning partner inputs, proposal sections, review cycles, and submission readiness.

Modular formats

Built around the proposal in front of you.

A program can focus on selected proposal stages or combine them into a longer boot camp. Sessions can emphasize leading AI tools, customized workflows, or both — neither approach is treated as superior.

Proposal-team workshop

A focused session around one live call, proposal, or review milestone.

Research-support training

Reusable methods for teams supporting multiple applicants and calls.

Consortium sprint

Shared work on partner roles, work packages, narrative consistency, and review.

Customized workflow session

Build a reusable assistant or workflow for call analysis, compliance, review, or partner follow-up. No coding required.

Bring real work

Useful from the first exercise.

Bring an active call or work programme, a topic idea, draft sections, evaluation criteria, partner descriptions, or an internal review checklist. Private and sensitive materials do not need to be shared with the group; suitable sample cases can be used instead.

What this training does — and does not do

The training helps teams prepare, review, and coordinate proposal work more effectively. It does not promise funding, write a proposal without expert ownership, or replace legal, financial, ethics, security, data-protection, or institutional review.
