Administer a Chair


Administration

The Canada Excellence Research Chairs and Canada 150 Research Chairs Administration Guide outlines the terms and conditions for administering Canada Excellence Research Chair awards. It does not cover terms and conditions related to contributions from the Canada Foundation for Innovation (CFI).

Communications

Institutions and chairholders are expected to follow the Communication Guidelines for Institutions and Chairholders.

In addition, and in accordance with these communication guidelines, institutions should make every effort to ensure that chairholders acknowledge the support of the Canada Excellence Research Chairs Program.

Non-compliance

Non-compliance with these regulations or with current granting agency regulations and requirements may result in the Tri-agency Institutional Programs Secretariat (TIPS) freezing or closing a particular grant account. TIPS and/or the relevant granting agency will promptly report any fraudulent use of Canada Excellence Research Chairs funds to the appropriate legal authorities.
