Overview: In October 2024, the Tri-agencies released a statement that narrative CVs, also called the "Tri-agency CV" would be required for future applications. Since this announcement, select competitions (SSHRC Impact Award, CIHR Catalysts, NSERC Discovery Horizons) have tested the narrative CV format. A full-rollout date is not confirmed, but the Tri-agencies hinted Spring 2026 as a possible implementation deadline for major grants. Upcoming Tri-agency grant competitions may choose to use the TCV format. For example, the CIHR Planning and Dissemination grant for Summer 2025 requires the TCV format.

Join ORIS for an interactive workshop where you'll learn about the narrative CV format and begin crafting your own research narrative. Through guided activities and discussion, you will gain practical tools and feedback to help you prepare for this important update.

We recommend bringing your laptop and a copy of a recent CV.
