Abstract Background Obtaining research funding support is integral to a successful career in science. Training and practice in grant writing, as well as engagement in peer review of grant applications may help lead to successful research funding. However, there is little evidence on the impact of institutional programs on the career development of early career investigators (ECIs). Objectives Understand the impact of participation in an institutional research award program on the career development of ECIs. Methods The Cardiovascular Research Institute of Vermont established an Early Career Research (ECR) award program in 2018. ECIs who participated as applicants or reviewers in the first 3 years of the program (2018‐2020) were surveyed to understand the impact of the ECR award program on their grant writing and professional development. Results Ninety‐four percent of 17 applicants and 90% of 19 reviewers completed the survey. Ninety‐two percent of funded and 75% of unfunded applicants, and 87% of reviewers reported that the program was beneficial to their professional development. Similarly, 85% of funded applicants, 75% of unfunded applicants, and 80% of reviewers reported improvement in their grant‐writing skills. All respondents reported they would recommend the ECR award program to their peers. Conclusions This single‐institution ECR award program had a positive impact on ECI’s professional development and grant‐writing skills and may lead to further extramural funding opportunities. |
