College of Reviewers 2022

The BERA College of Reviewers is a group comprised of high quality academic reviewers including practitioners and policy makers who draw on research evidence. Members are drawn from a range of organisations and career experiences. The College works closely with BERA’s Engagement Committee who oversee most of our award schemes and ensure criteria fit with BERA’s strategic priorities.

We are delighted to announce the appointment of four more members to the college. Thank you to all who applied, and congratulations to this years cohort.
