# Assess Grant Applications

## This article is for Assessors who have been assigned an Application for assessment. If you have no Applications to be assessed on your dashboard, wait for someone to assign you an Application for assessment.

Overview

For each assessment panel you have been assigned to, you will be able to view the Summary Information for each application. Next you will need to confirm that you have no Conflict of Interest (COI). If you do have a COI for any Application, you will need to indicate that and provide some description of your conflict. Once your COI declaration is complete, you will be able to access the proposals in full and input your assessment details for each Application.

## Getting Started

* To assess a Grant you will need to log into the funding portal. If you do not have a log in, see [Creating an Account.](https://help.tahua.io/knowledge-base/assessor-help-guides/broken-reference)\

## Conflict of Interest

You will be directed to the Conflict of Interest page. Review the Application fields and declare whether there is a conflict of interest.

### If you have a conflict of interest

{% step %}
Select that you do, and disclose the reason. Be descriptive as this information will be sent to the Grant Administrator.\

{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Click **Next,** then **Submit Conflict of Interest.**

After you submit your Conflict of Interest (COI), the Grant Administrator will have the opportunity to review your declaration. If the Administrator deems that it is appropriate to assess the Application under the circumstances, they will Revoke the COI.

* On your **Dashboard** under the **Notifications** section, look out to see if a COI has been revoked.
* Alternatively, under “My Assessments”, look for Applications with the status “Cleared Conflict”, then click **Assess.**
