SEDAR assessment projects follow one of three approaches approved by the Steering Committee: benchmark, standard and update. Each provides a peer reviewed stock assessment, they simply vary in the details of how the project is managed as well as the time and analyses required. The Benchmark Approach is used to develop first-time assessments for stocks and to incorporate new datasets or new analytical methods into existing assessments. In this case, a panel or group of independent experts reviews the data and assessment to determine if the methods applied are scientifically sound. The standard approach is used to incorporate recent information into existing assessments. Peer review of standard assessments is provided by a Cooperators technical panel such as a Council Scientific and Statistical Committee. The update approach is used strictly to incorporate the most recent information into assessment analyses. Updates only allow for applying additional years of data to an existing assessment. Similar to the Standard process, peer review is provided by a Cooperators technical panel such as a Council Scientific and Statistical Committee.
