[Flex] Fwd: NSF-approved Biographical Sketch Format

[Jean Davis Taft]

Hello, fellow Flex committee members,

Have you had a chance to explore this email yet? It looks like the NSF 
CVs are going to have a new look and feel and that we will have to meet 
this requirement:
Beginning with the next iteration of the PAPPG (anticipated effective 
date, January 2020), NSF will only accept PDFs for biographical sketches 
that are generated through use of an NSF-approved format.

Susan Sholi brought this email to the attention of PO. Thank you!

Your thoughts?
Thanks,
Jean

Dear Colleagues:

Please be advised that the National Science Foundation (NSF) has 
designated the National Institutes of Health’s SciENcv 
<https://www.eiseverywhere.com/emarketing/go.php?i=673260&e=anRhZnRAd2hvaS5lZHU=&l=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sciencv/><https://www.eiseverywhere.com/emarketing/go.php?i=673260&e=anRhZnRAd2hvaS5lZHU=&l=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sciencv/>(Science 
Experts Network Curriculum Vitae) as an NSF-approved format for 
submission of biographical sketch(es) and is encouraging its use to 
prepare a biographical sketch for inclusion in proposals to NSF.

In accordance with the current /Proposal & Award Policies & Procedures 
Guide/ 
<https://www.eiseverywhere.com/emarketing/go.php?i=673260&e=anRhZnRAd2hvaS5lZHU=&l=https://www.nsf.gov/publications/pub_summ.jsp|Q|ods_key|E|nsf19001>(PAPPG) 
(NSF 19-1), a biographical sketch (limited to two pages) is required for 
each individual identified as senior personnel on a proposal, and a 
separate biographical sketch PDF file, or other NSF-approved format, 
must be uploaded in FastLane for each designated individual (see PAPPG 
Chapter II.C.2.f. 
<https://www.eiseverywhere.com/emarketing/go.php?i=673260&e=anRhZnRAd2hvaS5lZHU=&l=https://www.nsf.gov/pubs/policydocs/pappg19_1/pappg_2.jsp#IIC2f>). 
The biographical sketch and file format requirements also apply to NSF 
proposals submitted through Research.gov and Grants.gov.

Use of an NSF-approved format aims to reduce administrative burden and 
improve efficiencies by providing proposers with a compliant and 
reusable way to maintain this information for subsequent proposal 
submissions to NSF, while also ensuring that the information is 
submitted in a searchable composition.

Beginning with the next iteration of the PAPPG (anticipated effective 
date, January 2020), NSF will only accept PDFs for biographical sketches 
that are generated through use of an NSF-approved format. A description 
of NSF-approved format(s) will be posted on the NSF website when the 
PAPPG is issued. A draft version of the PAPPG was published in the 
Federal Register 
<https://www.eiseverywhere.com/emarketing/go.php?i=673260&e=anRhZnRAd2hvaS5lZHU=&l=https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2019-05-29/pdf/2019-11124.pdf> 
for public comment. The deadline for submission of comments is COB July 
29, 2019.

Multiple training resources are available on the SviENcv
