- At least one email address and a faculty need to be filled in before you can request additional information. This information should be filled in through the provisioning process.
- The "contract start date" and "start date phd project" should already be provisioned. The PhD should fill in the "planned finishing date phd project".

If this is not correct it needs to be altered.
- You can select the contract type using the drop down menu. If the VSNU-type of the PhD is 1a - Employeed Candidate, this information should already be provisioned. If the PhD has another VSNU-type, the Faculty promotion coordinator must fill in the contract type. If the contract type is not yet known, select 9. To be determined.
The PhD candidate must fill in the left-hand side of the form. Once additional information has been requested and the candidate has filled in their personal details, you can review the information to ensure that all the required information is correct. If necessary you can add or alter it yourself or request additional information a second time.
PhD supervisors, co-supervisors and daily supervisors should be filled in by the PhD candidate.
PhD supervisors and co-supervisors can be added in the corresponding table. Supervisors known in the sytem can be added by searching for their name using the 'person' search field, then selecting the supervisor and hitting the enter key.
You can manually input supervisors that are not known in the system by checking the 'enter manually' box and then inputting their personal details.
In the event that the PhD has a daily supervisor, or mentor that is not a co-supervisor, they can add a daily supervisor in the 'Daily supervisor' table.
