After the successful completion
of training, Evaluators will be placed on one (or more) teams throughout
the year, depending on their availability and potential conflicts of
interest. Once assigned, an assessment cycle usually takes between 75-90
calendar days depending on the complexity of the applicant and other
circumstances. Click here for
more information on the assessment schedule from the applicant’s
perspective.

for members ($600 for non-members)
Second-year Evaluators - $250

A limited number of scholarships
