B6.             Successful grant applications
B6.1                You are encouraged to work with Us to facilitate the effective establishment of the Training Centre.

Your responsibilities
B6.2                You must undertake a process of competitive national and international recruitment for ICHDRs and ICPDs to be appointed to the Training Centre once the grant has been approved and announced. The recruitment and selection processes must:
          1. include competitive recruitment practices involving advertisement, selection and offers;
         b.              ensure that ICPDs hold a PhD (or equivalent) qualification; and
         c.              demonstrate an effort to attract and recruit external and international candidates.
B6.3                You will be responsible for ensuring that:
          1. ICHDRs recruited to and funded through Your Training Centre are enrolled in a HDR at an Eligible Organisation;
          2. ICPDs recruited to and funded through Your Training Centre must be an employee for at least 0.5 FTE at an Eligible Organisation;
          3. ICHDRs funded through the Training Centre grant conduct research for a minimum total of one year full-time placement with a Partner Organisation(s) (outside the higher education sector) over the project activity period;
          4. ICPDs funded through the Training Centre grant are encouraged to spend significant time conducting research with a Partner Organisation(s);
          5. ICHDRs and ICPDs do not commence another Commonwealth Fellowship or award while they are employed with funds from the project; and
          6. details of the selection and recruitment process for ICHDRs and ICPDs are made available for audit purposes if requested.
B6.4                Contributions from participating organisations may be used to top-up the stipends of the ICHDRs and salaries of the ICPDs where appropriate. A project may include additional HDR and postdoctoral roles fully funded by participating organisation contributions; however these roles are not considered to be ICHDRs and ICPDs.
