ADEA PASS Evaluators
ADEA PASS®
(Postdoctoral Application Support Service) requires applicants to provide two
types of evaluations in order to complete their application. Both the
Professional Evaluation (PEF) and Institution Evaluation (IEF) will be managed
through Letters by Liaison®, the new evaluation portal.
1.) Institution Evaluation Form (IEF)
- Also called the Dean’s Letter.
- Written by the Dean or
designee.
- Collects the applicants’ grades
and rank (if applicable), an evaluation of ethical behavior and remarks.
- New in 2019! The
National Board Dental Exam (NBDE) results will no longer be collected on
the IEF as official results can now be requested and sent to ADEA PASS by
the applicant.
- This evaluation is required and
will be sent to all programs designated by the applicant.
If your dental school has recently had a change of dean or the designated contact for the Institution Evaluation Form, please submit an
update to ADEA PASS and we will change our records. If your dental school does has not been set-up to process the IEF electronically you may
register today.
2.) Professional Evaluation Form (PEF)
- Also called an individual
letter.
- Written by individuals
recommending the applicant; they are often faculty, mentors, colleagues or
employers.
- Collects an evaluation of and
comments for ten attributes (integrity, professional demeanor, clinical
skills, reaction to criticism, didactic knowledge, critical thinking,
interpersonal skills, organizational skills, self-awareness and maturity)
and remarks.
- Three PEFs are required for every applicant with the choice to submit an additional two optional PEFs.
- All PEFs will be sent to all programs designated by the applicant.
- New in 2019!
PEFs cannot be customized.
