The Evaluator Role
BRSA evaluators are the practitioners of the standard. They conduct assessments, gather evidence within the 12 defined domain boundaries, apply the FRARI v1.0.0 ruleset, and submit findings through the two-tier sign-off structure to the BRSA Standards Authority.
The evaluator role is the most consequential position in the BRSA ecosystem — every readiness determination that reaches the public record passes through an accredited evaluator. Evaluators are not employees of BRSA. They are accredited practitioners who have demonstrated competence with the standard, committed to the governance framework, and accepted the ethical obligations of the role.
"An evaluator's signature on a readiness finding is a statement of professional and institutional integrity. We treat it accordingly."
Eligibility Requirements
The following baseline requirements apply to all applicants during the pilot phase. Institutional partners have a separate pathway — include your organization's name and mission in your submission.
Evaluator Onboarding Request
Submit your contact information and a brief statement of your background. BRSA will respond within 5 business days. During the pilot phase, capacity is limited and applications are reviewed individually.
This form does not create a registry record. To enter the registry as an individual, use Individual Intake.
Governance & Compliance Expectations
These are binding obligations — not guidelines. Accredited evaluators accept these terms as a condition of certification.
Accreditation Pathway
The BRSA evaluator accreditation pathway has four stages. No stage may be skipped. Certification is earned — not granted.
