The Royal College of Occupational Therapists (RCOT) is seeking to recruit two members as external assessors for its Annual Awards for Learning, Development and Research.
This is an exciting professional development opportunity. As an assessor you will be responsible, together with an internal RCOT assessor, for reviewing applications for one of the RCOT Annual Award categories and agreeing which applications will go forward to the assessment panel meeting.
This opportunity is suitable for occupational therapists who have experience of reviewing grant/award applications or academic assessment and have an understanding of research governance, including ethics, data protection and confidentiality.
The assessment of the award applications normally takes place in November each year, with assessments returned by mid-December, ahead of the panel meeting in January. Assessors normally serve a three year term.
Interested applicants should contact Kinza Ahmad, Research and Development Administrator, for more information and an application form: kinza.ahmad@rcot.co.uk
The closing date for applications is 5pm Friday 28 August 2020.
