How long will the research take?
We understand the time pressures business faces, and the impact this can have on their operations and productivity. Most CONII projects are done in less than one year, with the majority being completed within the 6 month to one-year time frame. There are several models of R&D that can be explored including direct research contracts with faculty as principal investigators (most expedient) to using students in course-based research projects (may take longer as the projects must be mapped to the academic calendar). Member colleges will work with you to develop a timeline that meets your schedule. Who will own the research? We understand the importance of ownership of know-how and intellectual property. Each college has developed its own research policies and would be happy to share these with you. The CONII members support the following common intellectual property principles: We support the exploitation of intellectual property to support a strong Canadian economy and improve the quality
We will work with you to develop a research protocol that meets your time schedule. Two options are available: direct contact with faculty (most expedient) or through final year, course-based research projects (takes longer, but more cost effective).

If, for example, you select the Thistle Package then the research could be complete in around two weeks whilst the Tartan Package should take about a week longer. The Saltire Package will take several weeks due to the lengthy and extensive nature of the research. For other packages such as the Tailored Package the time will depend upon the nature of the research to be carried out. Once the research is completed it will be sent to you through the post, however, you can opt to have your family history report sent to your email acc
