Searching IDEA online can be done by :
  • Selecting one or several criteria in the pop-up menus
  • Use a full text search by entering one or several words. Note that the full text search applies to all the words included in IDEA online data base. Caution : the full text search mode that we have selected is by "character string" and not by taking into account several words independantly. If you are looking for a precise person, you will get a better result by typing only his/her family name.
  • Mixing the full text and the criteria search.
  • If you encounter difficulties or do not find what you are looking for, do not hesitate to go through our online help. And you can also email us !
