Standard period of appointment at Derby is four years. An application for an extension for no more than one further year may be considered in certain exceptional circumstances.

Currently we appoint our external examiners for a 3 year term of office with
possible extension to 4 years. (renewable annually). We are considering a
change to this so that all examiners are appointed for four years.
I am aware that HEQC guidance was for 'not more than five years'. I would be
grateful for an idea of the usual terms of office in other HEIs.
As usual I will collate and distribute the replies.
