At the AIANY’s Got License disscussion, NCARB’s Nick Serfass gave some pointers for using the new online employment verification tool, e-EVR.
Nick discussed submiting your IDP units to your supervisor for approval. He explained, if your supervisor disagrees with your submission he/she has 3 options. The first option, I didn’t quite hear in the discussion. The other two were “Return for edits” and ”Reject permanently”. The return for edits means your supervisor disagrees with certain categories and requests it is edited before approval. The reject permanently means your supervisor does not intend to ever approve those units and time period. Nick made it clear that before the final click to reject, your supervisor recieves 2 or 3 warnings to click through. It is likely they would pick up on these, before making the final click to reject. Nick also made it clear to give NCARB a call so they can adjust the e-EVR, if for some reason your supervisor made a mistake to reject permanently.
Those of you using e-EVR know of the status bar that shows how many units are completed. Nick explained that your supervisor sees a similiar bar denoting your progress. As I understood, the supervisor’s bar does not state exactly the same info as the one you see. Meant as an easy visual aid, the bar tracks your progress and lets your supervisor assess how close you are to the IDP goal of 700 training units.
Update: For those not familiar with e-EVR @mfrech’s blog has a screenshot here of e-EVR.
