I had already paid for the onsite traineeship on 27th November 2020 as 2nd installment for the 8 weeks programme. However I couldn't pursue the fellowship later as there was Covid Pandemic. I was informed by your side that I can pursue it after the pandemic. I am unable to arrange for additional funds. Can I pursue 4 weeks programme?

Can the fellowship be planned after 1 year as this year Coronavirus pandemic may alter travel arrangements indefinitely?

Sure. You can do this program anytime between Jan 2021 and December 2021

I am applying to my parent institute for sponsorship for which a confirmation letter from the host institute is required. I request you to provide me a confirmation letter from the host so that I can get funds for this fellowship

Once your application is approved you will receive an invoice that allows you to print out a copy of the letter of an invite. The confirmation letter from the host will only be provided right after we pay the invoice.
