Notice to firms having a 2012 peer review

With the advent of the Peer Review Information System Manager (PRISM), a Web-based system for administering and tracking peer reviews, the date that we notify firms of their upcoming peer review has changed. We are now staggering the mailing of this information to firms to within 6 – 9 months of their due date, as opposed to a complete batch mailing in the fall that included firms not due for a review for well over 12 months. This timing will continue to provide firms with ample time to schedule their review; however the scheduling form may be downloaded (www.nepr.org/firms/scheduling.html), completed and submitted to NEPR at any time that a firm has the necessary information prepared.

new - peer review letters now being emailed!

Email

Beginning this year, NEPR will be using PRISM to email many of the letters we would typically snail-mail, including 1st and 2nd notice scheduling requests and confirmation letters.

Please note that we will continue to snail-mail acceptance letters and any third and final notices.

As we make this change, it is important that we have on file the correct  email addresses. Please ensure that if you change your email address (peer review contacts and managing partners) you submit the revision(s) to NEPR.

To ensure that you receive peer review letters and notices from NEPR:

  • Add nh@prcpa.org and peerreview@nepr.org to your e-mail safe senders list.
