Review a material before proposing it

A creator preparing a sample before proposing it, or a reviewer on the receiving end who wants a shared standard. Use it in the last hour before the sample goes out to a reviewer. Otherwise you discover after submission that the material cites a stale source, uses an image without rights or includes a former client's data.

A self-review checks factual support, source freshness, practical value, accessibility and whether private data has been removed.

• Take a sanitized sample of the material and note its authorship or license and the sources it relies on.
• Check factual support: can each claim be traced to a source that would sit in Company Knowledge with an owner and a version?
• Check source freshness, practical value for the intended learner task, and accessibility of any media or slides.
• Confirm private data has been removed, then attach the self-review to the creator brief.

A fictional HR consultant prepares a sample lesson on conducting a first-week check-in. She lists her own template as the source, replaces a real client's name with an invented company name, and finds that one statistic came from a report she no longer has access to. She removes the statistic rather than guess.

• The self-review shows five items with a yes or a note: support, freshness, value, accessibility, privacy.
• The statistic is removed and the lesson relies on her template and a described practice.
• The sample goes into the brief with the review attached, and the reviewer can see what was checked.

• Every claim in the sample traces to a source the creator can name.
• Media and slides are permitted and readable.
• No real person, client or private document appears in the sample.

This is a review guide, not an automated checker. No upload, scoring service or external submission is connected to this page. A self-review makes the reviewer's job easier but does not replace it; a person on the program side reads the sample and decides. Terms for any contribution follow an approved agreement.

What if my source is my own experience? Say so, and frame the material as practice guidance rather than a factual claim. A reviewer can accept described practice when it is labeled.

• Do I need to include a quiz? Not for a sample. A short lesson or a job aid with a clear source is enough to evaluate.
