College of Reviewers
In late 2024, the EECERJ editorial team began the search to find members of the inaugural College of Reviewers (CoR). We received an overwhelming expression of interest from academics and researchers from all over the world. The interested candidates were rigorously screened and evaluated during a series of editorial team sessions, resulting in a core group of reviewers.
The purpose of the CoR is to supplement our current reviewer base with a strong, highly-qualified set of dedicated individuals who are committed to delivering thorough, thoughtful and developmental reviews on a consistent basis. They will not be relied upon to deliver all reviews for the journal and we will continue to invite reviewers from across the EECERA community as well as researchers and experts from cross-disciplinary fields of study. To find out more about eligibility, requirements and incentives, see below:
Though we are publicly acknowledging the contributions of the CoR members, peer-review at EECERJ will continue to be anonymous through the processes established by our publisher, Taylor and Francis, monitored by the editorial team. Please see our peer review policy for more information. EECERJ is currently accepting expressions of interest for the 2027 CoR. The deadline to apply is the 31st of October, 2026.
