Dear Coordinator,

The **MSCA Financial Guide** was published in Dec 2023 and replaces the Annotated Grant Agreement :https://marie-sklodowska-curie-actions.ec.europa.eu/news/marie-sklodowska-curie-actions-financial-guide-published)specifies (herewith for your best convenience).

You are encouraged to consult the document to have a better overview of all rules governing DNs.  

In addition, please bear in mind that**the enrollment to a PhD is now** **mandator**y for all modes (including DN).

We have therefore requested that the Guide specifies what happens in case a DC fails a PhD exam and is not enrolled in a PhD anymore. This is now clearly mentioned in the Guide (page 26): 

*"If the condition of being enrolled in a doctoral **programme** is not fulfilled, even after the signature of the employment contract, the related unit contributions are NOT eligible. This also applies to cases where the enrolment is refused by a beneficiary after the signature of the employment contract or if a recruited researcher fails their probation period. **Beneficiaries should properly inform the recruited researchers of the consequences of failure to meet this condition."*** 

I remain available for any further assistance,

Kind regards, Nina
