Automated Sapphire account creation and updated Portal
NHMRC will be updating the Sapphire Portal in the next 2 weeks. Key changes include new page design to support faster access to information, a search function, the ability to direct users to links to parts of the portal such as Tutorials pages, and an upgrade to the request form for individual Sapphire accounts.
This update will significantly improve the user experience and includes a streamlined process for creating Sapphire accounts that will enable most account creation requests to be processed automatically, providing a more efficient and user-friendly form and faster response in most cases. Please note, some requests may still require manual processing and verification by the Research Help Centre (RHC).
This update applies only to individual account holders; there will be no changes to the process for handling institutional positions.
For any questions or further assistance, please contact the Research Help Centre at help@nhmrc.gov.au.
