During the conversation, 2 Peer Reviewers will take turns asking you a prepared question followed by an unprepared question that relates to your response to the initial question. It will be important to carefully consider your answers to the follow-up questions while the conversation is being recorded.
- The national Peer Reviewer may be present with you physically, while the international Peer Reviewer may participate virtually through electronic means. Alternatively, both Peer Reviewers may be present either physically or virtually.
