Period covered by Proposal:January to December 2016

General Information

Please refer to the SRC Program Manuals for all budget information linked to your SRC relationship.

The SRC Program is bound by a limited budget which cannot be exceeded. This budget is divided over all center links who receive a different financial allocation depending on their level within the program:

A level links receive an annual allocation of maximum 15,000 USD

B level links receive an annual allocation of maximum 12,000 USD

C level links receive an annual allocation of maximum 1,500 USD

Please make sure that you submit your budget in USD. Indeed, in order to avoid further problems due to conversion rates, we will not accept any more budgets submitted in EUR.

The money will be sent to you as a grant. It will be sent to the Supporting Center for SRC Pairs and to the Mentor Center for the SRC Trios (unless explicitly requested and approved by the Mentor Center that the money be sent to the Supporting Center). It is then the Supporting or Mentor Center who distributes the money according to the incurred expenses. Please make sure to indicate the bank details of the Center of your link in the form below.

The SRC committee will judge the development of your SRC link based on the SRC objectives (that can be found in the manuals) and it is hoped your budget is prepared accordingly to address the below criteria:

Primary criteria:

1. Clinical staff training

2. Education

3. Upgrade of clinical services

Secondary criteria:

1. Community-orientation including evidence of participation in World Kidney Day

2. Clinical research activities at the EC

3. Relay of knowledge through regional, national and international meetings and publications

Guidelines to prepare your budget proposal:

-Budget amount:

  • The budget proposal should be consistent with the level you are applying to (for example if you are applying to level A, please submit a budget that amounts to 15.000 USD)
  • Please submit a budget in accordance to your allocated ISN SRC budget. If you wish to show all the activities and expenses planned for the year (also with non ISN SRC money), please use an annexe page

-Budget restrictions:

  • Please note that only 10% of your SRC budget can be allocated to travel supplement (so up to 150 USD for pairs applying to level C, 1,200USD for pairs applying to level B and 1,500 USD for pairs applying to level A)
  • The SRC grant is an educational grant and not a service grant. It is therefore highly discouraged to plan Budget for equipment (such as regular patient care or research laboratory equipment)

-ISN synergies with other ISN Programs:

The ISN offers 4 other very excitingPrograms: the Fellowship, the Educational Ambassador, the CME and the Research and Prevention Program.We would like to encourage you to use these programs to fund some of your SRC activities. As a SRC partnership, you have priority points when applying to these programs and this would allow you to use the SRC money for other educational activities. For instance, the Fellowship Program could fund short terms visits (2-6 months) from the EC to the SC/MC. Visit the ISN website for more information:
