A brief description of the review process:

1. Shannon and Michelle reviewed STARS Technical Manual and the Independent Review Template to re-familiarize themselves with the credits. The External Review was scheduled for July 17 and July 20 from 9 a.m to 4 p.m. The reviewers were present on both days and were talked through each credit by Romy Kupfer (STARS Coordinator).

2. Using the Independent Review Template, the reviewers examined each credit, the requirements for the credit, the available data, and whether MacEwan would be pursuing the credit. The credits had a considerable amount of work completed before the review session was conducted which allowed the peer reviewers to review the report, timeframes and attachments at a relatively high level. There was ample opportunity to discuss areas of concern and areas where more information or clarification was required. Feedback and questions were captured in the Review Template.

3. Once the feedback was gathered from both days, the MacEwan STARS Coordinator reflected on the comments, gathered further information, made note in the Review Template, updated the credit information and completed the draft STARS submission.

4. Upon completion of all credits MacEwan was planning on pursuing, a final draft report was provided to both UAlberta reviewers, who reviewed the report a second time to ensure accuracy, completeness, consistency in figures and timeframes, and relevance. They also checked if the feedback from the two review days was incorporated.

5. The reviewers confirmed that the changes and suggestions were incorporated into the final draft and that MacEwan was submitting a valid, representative and complete STARS submission.
