CBU has subscribed to GrantForward Funding Search and Grant Recommendation Service, which is open to all members of our institution. We invite you to sign up to use the service to keep your awareness of funding opportunities.

GrantForward helps you find grant opportunities that suit your research needs with a database of grants from over 18,000 sponsors, updated daily. You can search for grants by keywords and advanced filters, save your favorite searches for new grant alerts, and save your favorite grants to keep track of them.  GrantForward also recommends grants based on your CV, past publications, and research interests. We also encourage you to take a few minutes to create your own to start receiving grant recommendations!

You can access GrantForward through the Single Sign-On and enter your institutional account. After being authenticated, a new account on GrantForward, associated with your email address, will be automatically created, and you will be redirected to the GrantForward website. Then, you can use full search features, including saved searches and personalized grant recommendations. We also encourage you to take a few minutes to create your “Researcher Profile” (see quick demo) to start receiving grant recommendations!

Attached is a Researcher Welcome Guide for you to quickly start using GrantForward. You can also find additional tutorials and guides on the GrantForward Support page or view the video tutorials on their YouTube Channel. If you have any questions about the service, please do not hesitate to contact me.
