Marie-Sklodowska Curie actions(MSCA)-Innovative Training Network (ITN): are a sub-programme of the Horizon 2020 and aim to train a new generation of creative, entrepreunarial and innovative ESRs, able to face current and future challenges and to covert knowledge and ideas into products and services for economic and social benefit.

More details about the Marie-Sklodowska Curie actions

Beneficiaries: are organisations that are full partners of the network. They contribute directly to the implementation of the research training programme by appointing, supervising, hosting and training researchers.

Partners organisations: do not employ the researchers within the project. They provide additional training and host researchers during secondments.

Early-Stage Researchers: are researchers recruited by the Beneficiaries and who are at the time of the recruitment in the first four years of their research career and not have been awarded a doctoral degree.

Secondment: is a period spent by an ESR at the premises of a Beneficiary or Partner organisation other than the Beneficiary which has recruited the ESR under the project.
