Directions for Faculty Completing the promotion and tenure process.

Please review Promotion, Tenure Policies and Procedures and Approved Standards of Excellence.

There are 2 phases of the P&T process. You have to complete both phases to submit your dossier for promotion/tenure.

Phase 1) Complete "Activities" - Make sure you have added all of your faculty activities and achievements in the "Activities" section of Digital Measures. This information will be pulled into the Workflow process for you.

Phase 2) Complete all "Tasks" under "Workflow" tab.

• Add additional documentation and supporting evidence
  • Click on the "Workflow" tab in DM. Then select "tasks" and you will see the link "Promotion and Tenure University Launch July 2020". Click this link.
  • You will be able to add unlimited evidence (files) for each category.
  • Provide specific names for each file so that the reviewer knows exactly what they are viewing (i.e. service_chamber_of_commerce_2015-2017, study_abroad_london_summer_2018, student_evaluations_fall2017_spring2019)
• Upload student evaluations to each course in the "Scheduled Teaching" Section in Activities. You can download pdfs from Evaluation Kit.
• Once you have uploaded your evidence into the Workflow Process, Click "Submit to "Dean /Designee to Accept Documents" under the tab "Action" in the top right-hand corner.
• The faculty candidate will have the opportunity to respond after each phase of the tenure process. Candidates do not need to respond and the dossier will be automatically forwarded to the next step in the process. If candidates do want to respond, they must do so within two days, the dossier will automatically forward to the next stage- no other action is required.
• Faculty will have the opportunity to withdraw their application at each point of the process.
