TCN Reporting Requirements

Prior to each IAC meeting, TCNs are asked to complete a quarterly progress report in the following areas: progress in digitization efforts; share and identify best practices and standards (including lessons learned); identify gaps in digitization areas and technology; share and identify opportunities to enhance training efforts; share and identify collaborations with other TCNs, institutions, and organizations; and share and identify opportunities and strategies for sustainability; and other progress that doesn’t fit into the other categories.

The TCN Lead PI submits reports quarterly to iDigBio using our online form: Online Form for TCN Quarterly Reports. The TCN Lead PI collects info from all collaborators and compiles into one bi-monthly report. Please note that you will need to be logged in to your account to access the webform. If you are having issues logging in, or if you need help with creating an account, please contact us.
