Mapping academic career assessment reform initiatives - survey outcomes (CoARA Working Group ACA)

The CoARA Working Group on Reforming Academic Career Assessment (WG ACA) has developed a targeted mapping of initiatives on academic career assessment, which included a survey and case studies on academic career assessment initiatives.

The survey gathered information on institutional/organisational level initiatives that aim to broaden the criteria and methods for evaluating the outputs and impacts of academic activities for the purposes of recruitment, performance evaluation and career progression of academic staff.

The survey was addressed to higher education and research organisations worldwide. It targeted organisations that were planning, initiating or implementing a reform process on academic career assessment - either at departmental/unit level or organisational level.

These files include the survey outcomes, questionnaire and dataset.
