Could unrealistic CPD or support requirements be set which cannot be delivered or resourced? If a reviewer offers support knowing it is not available, are they accountable?
The Guidance requires that all reviewers should receive appropriate preparation for the role. This includes a need to make sure that each reviewer understands the context in which they are working, and what support, training and development can reasonably be agreed with a reviewee. It should therefore be clear from the outset what is available and the reviewee cannot be penalised if support is not provided.
