Tri-agency Guide on Financial Administration (TAGFA) and Eligible Research Expenditures

Attention all experienced and emerging Humber researchers!

Did you know? The Tri-agencies (the Canadian Institutes of Health Research, the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada, and the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada) have implemented the new principles-based Tri-agency Guide on Financial Administration (TAGFA) for research expenditures.
 
TAGFA will promote efficiencies, reduce administrative burden, and provide greater flexibility to institutions and grant recipients in ensuring appropriate accountability and use of grant funds. Humber’s Office of Research & Innovation (ORI) has developed a webpage with more information and resources (https://humber.ca/research/tagfa).
 
Join us in this 45-minute webinar to learn more about TAGFA, eligibility and best practices for using this new Tri-agency guide.
