The CPRA competition 2008 is now open. Applications can only be submitted by completing the designated CPRA application form on-line and returning it to the ENCATC secretariat.
Application deadline: 23rd May 2008 (23:00 CET)

The application form is divided into 7 steps. In each step, you are asked to enter relevant information about yourself and your project.
Once the application has been sent, no further changes can be made. That way, we strongly advise you to use the structure of the CPR Award application outlined bellow in order to prepare your application. Then you can come back here and go through the 7 steps of the online application form just by copying the information in the text fields. All fields are obligatory, so please enter all required information.

With completion of the 7th step, you will be able to review the whole document and confirm your application. At the end, an automated response will appear, confirming that you have submitted your application for the CPR Award.

If, for some reason, you experience any problems while using the CPR Award online application form, please send an e-mail to communications@encatc.org.

IMPORTANT: After filling in the fields of each step, and going to the next step, press "proceed to step x" and not just press enter, otherwise the information will not be saved.
