MY AAC ONLINE – AN ONLINE APPLICATION AND PROJECT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM TO HELP AAC APPLICANTS
New for this intake, organizations and collaborations are asked to create an account at My AAC Online , an online project management system to help AAC applicants apply for Canadian Agricultural Partnership funding and manage their approved projects.

If your organization/business hasn’t already set up an account and you plan to apply, we encourage you to sign-up for an account before the intake deadline.

Only one My AAC Online account can be set up per organization/business. The Username and Password will be used by all individuals from your organization/business who require access to the project management system. Only the lead applicant for a collaboration will have to set up an account and they will submit documents on behalf of the collaboration members. 

An application template is available on the AAC website that you may use to draft your application before applying through My AAC Online . The budget template, applicant declaration form and other application forms are also available online for you to complete and submit through My AAC Online with your application. We recommend you create one folder on your computer to save all of your application documentation (i.e. financial statements, budget, signed declaration forms, etc.) to make it easier to upload all of the documents at one time in your online application.
