Consultation is now open on the draft Panel-Specific Guidelines for the Performance-Based Research Fund (PBRF) Quality Evaluation 2026.
The Panel-Specific Guidelines have been developed by peer-review panels to support staff members submitting their Evidence Portfolios (EPs) for assessment in Quality Evaluation 2026.
Along with the Guidelines for TEOs participating in Quality Evaluation 2026 (TEO Guidelines) and the Guidelines for the Quality Evaluation 2026 assessment process (Assessment Guidelines), the Panel-Specific Guidelines provide panel- and subject-specific guidance for participating tertiary education organisation (TEO) staff members. They incorporate the in-principle decisions on EP design made by the Tertiary Education Commission (TEC) on the basis of the Sector Reference Group’s consultation process and recommendations since September 2021.
The TEC is consulting on the draft Panel-Specific Guidelines to ensure the guidance serves TEO staff submitting EPs for assessment.
