Program Details
To keep costs in line while maximizing the CORS National profile, CORS sponsorship will be limited to 50% of the total expenses, up to a maximum of $500 per speaker or $1000 for a single event (Conference, workshop). Other expenses can be covered by the local section. The event program must acknowledge the contribution of CORS. The President of the local section must contact the TSP Coordinator to obtain approval for funding at least one month before the event date.
The CORS Treasurer will make payment upon receipt of the Expense Form (https://www.cors.ca/sites/default/files/documents/expenses.pdf).
The local section president fills out the application form (https://www.cors.ca/sites/default/files/documents/tsp.pdf) and submits the form to the TSP Coordinator.
