Publication numbers have historically been the primary method of evaluating scholarly research outputs. However, these numbers do not consider different publication standards across research fields. The Declaration on Research Assessment (DORA) recognizes the need to improve the ways in which these outputs are evaluated. Developed in 2012, DORA is a big reason why the Tri-Agencies have decided to transition to a narrative CV.  

Research Services has invited High-Fidelity Science Communication to run a workshop on creating a narrative CV in June 2026 (date to be confirmed). Researchers are invited to come and learn more about DORA as they begin preparing their narrative CVs.

Presented by: Dr. Marva Sweeney-Nixon, UPEI Associate Vice-President, Research 

Open to Faculty, Research Scientists, Post-Docs, and Graduate Students
