About Common CV (CCV)
Launched in 2002, the Canadian Common CV (CCV) is a web-based application that provides researchers with a single, common approach to gathering CV information required by a network of federal, provincial and non-profit research funding organizations. The CCV uses a common standardized data model to capture information that is used for peer-review and reporting activities.
Governance
The inter-agency governing bodies of Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR), Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC) and Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) are the primary decision-making authorities and voting members. Canada Foundation for Innovation (CFI) and Fonds de recherche du Québec sit as non-voting members.
Board of Directors
The Board of Directors sets the strategic direction for the CCV application and ensures congruence between stakeholder expectations and corporate plans and priorities. Vice Presidents from CIHR, NSERC and SSHRC make up the voting members of the Board of Directors.
