Do training grant programs need to recruit students from the 3.C 1 and 2 group (individuals from disadvantaged backgrounds) defined in Question 3?
The answer depends on the scientific career stage of the targeted trainee group. The policy states that the 3.C category, including individuals who come from a family with an annual income below established low-income thresholds and individuals who come from a social, cultural, or educational disadvantaged environment, is most applicable to high school and undergraduate candidates, but would be more difficult to justify for individuals beyond that level of achievement. Therefore, training grant programs that support only graduate-level students and postdoctoral fellows are not required to submit a recruitment and retention plan addressing this group of candidates.
