Public Safety Canada: Module 5 - Sanctions 101
Public Safety Canada just announced their 2026 Safeguarding Science training series from January through March. These aren't your typical compliance webinars—they address the real-world scenarios you're probably already facing in your research partnerships and grant applications.
Who Should Attend: Faculty, postdocs, graduate students, research staff, and administrators across all disciplines. These sessions provide knowledge that protects your grants, partnerships, and intellectual property.
Full details on all Safeguarding Science Training Modules can be found on their website, along with details for attending the French language versions of each module.
