In the exceptional context of the current health crisis, Hcéres has decided, in liaison with the Ministry for Higher Education, Research and Innovation (MESRI) and the Ministry for Culture and after consulting the research bodies and Conference of University Presidents (CPU), to reschedule the evaluation calendar for the 2020-2021 campaign (Group B) over a two-year period. The terms of this rescheduling will be defined in the very near future in consultation with the supervising ministries and bodies, as well as with the stakeholders in the evaluation process.

It is with the greatest emotion that we have learned of the death of Michel Cormier on Thursday 26 March 2020. He was formerly the Director of the Institution Evaluation Department of the Aeres (now Hcéres) from 2007 to 2011.
