We've got exciting news for all you FER and BER authors out there!

The TCEC team is now able to review and provide feedback on how to improve your FERs and BERs before you submit them. Instead of getting comments and scores months later, we want you to be able to get guidance and support to improve your reports now.  Talk about making evaluation useful!   

First, sign up for an Evaluation Report Review timeslot.  

A TCEC team member will contact you pin down your meeting time(s).

Then, remember to send us your draft FERs or BERs at least 2 days before your chosen time to tcecTA@phmail.ucdavis.edu.  (And it doesn't have to be the whole report; you can send us sections and specific questions as well.)

We'll review your drafts and meet with you at the agreed upon time to discuss how to improve your reports.

There are nine spots each week with three slots per day every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday from mid-April to the end of June.  You can also contact your favorite evaluation associate to ensure you pick a timeslot with them.  Just keep in mind that the earlier you sign up, the better chance you have at getting your preferred Evaluation Report Review timeslot.  Starting early is one of the best things you can do to make the whole process easier.

You can also send us all your questions about writing FERs and BERs and learn from others during our live Q&A sessions offered on the first Wednesday of every month. Register for as many or as few as you'd like.  Each discussion is different! https://tobaccoeval.ucdavis.edu/events 

As always, our resources on report writing are available anytime as well as the search on Rover Library for examples of past FERs.  (Note: You will need an OTIS login to access the Rover Library.)

Stay tuned for more exciting improvements and support coming your way!

Happy writing!
