Funding Management Portal (FMP) Roadshows 2023

New

The Postgraduate Funding Project is working towards a big release in the Funding Management Portal in June 2023 and this roadshow will give colleagues an overview of the changes and benefits they can expect following the release. The roadshow will include contributions by the project’s sponsors, Prof Bhaskar Vira, Pro-Vice Chancellor for Education, and Mike Nicholson, Deputy Head of Education Services, situating the project’s work in the context of the University’s wider strategic aims and highlighting the positive impact it will have for both applicants and staff who engage with the system.

The June release will allow colleagues to use the Funding Management Portal to:

• Configure and collect funding applications through the Applicant Portal (GAP)
• Find eligible applicants for their funds
• Shortlist and share applications
• Assess applications for funding
• Update other funders in real time

The Funding Management Portal will also bring together all the information required for making informed decisions, such as real-time information about admissions statuses, other funders’ activities and applicants’ TOAST scores.
