Standards-based recognition
Asks whether a work reaches a stated standard for its stage. More than one work may receive the same level.
STANDARDS & HONOURS
What an honour will tell you.
Understand how UniversAwards approaches assessment, grouping, materials and result records.
REVIEW & RESULTS
Three paths, stated before a call opens
Different kinds of work and achievement call for different forms of review. Each programme should state its path, evidence and review arrangements clearly.
Competitive selection
Compares eligible work within a defined cohort. Places, proportions, ties and small-cohort rules must be set before entries open.
Achievement verification
Checks the source, process and result of a claimed achievement. It cannot be substituted by visual appeal or public votes.
A result record should identify
The record should identify the programme and series; work or achievement; contributor and stated role; age or development group; regional scope; season; review path; result; date; record number; and current status.
AI assistance and responsibility
If a programme uses AI to organise materials, assist an assessment or draft feedback, the programme rules must say so. A responsible person must confirm the result and state the route for a review request. No panel, score weight or service level is invented here.
