A few points to note on completing the online project pro-forma:

  • A number of sections to be completed are listed as ‘required’ to ensure these are completed.  Please just list N/A where you have no text to include.
  • There is a ‘finish later’ option so you do not need to complete the project pro-forma in one sitting.  A unique link will be provided which you can share with others to help you work collaboratively.
  • You can download a copy for your records once you have submitted your project pro-forma.
  • Once you have submitted you will not be able to make any further changes to your project, so please ensure that the copy you submit is the final copy.
  • Only project pro-formas submitted by the online project call survey will be accepted.
