Introduction

After the submission of your proposal, the European Commission will evaluate your proposal. You will be notified of each step of the proposal management and grant preparation process, starting with the notification of the evaluation results (the evaluation can take up to five months). 

These notifications will be available in Your Notifications in your area in the participant Portal, explaining how to access the Grant Management Services tool.
