Tenure and Promotion – Step 0

Faculty Submits External Reviewer List, Completes Remaining PAD Requirements

Candidates will receive an email when the tenure or promotion PAD is created and opened.

Navigate to the case from the email, from the home page of Faculty180, or from “Your Packets” in Faculty180.  Click View to see the PAD template.

Your Packet View

Navigate to the “Packets” tab at the top of the page to begin adding documents to the required sections.  Progress will be saved as documents are uploaded.

The intention of the first section is to include documents you wish to share with external reviewers. Submitting this first section will give unit administrators access to the files prior to requesting and collecting those reviews. Finalizing the list of external reviewers and noting any conflicts of interest can be done outside of Faculty180.

Tenure and Promotion Packet

External Reviewers


When adding documents, the candidate can select “Add New File” to upload from their computer or “Choose Existing” to locate files within the materials and collections saved from previous reviews.
Choose Existing and Add

The candidate can continue to click “Add” to include additional documentation. When all documents are attached the candidate will click “Submit” for that first section, only. The case will automatically notify the unit administrator in the next step. The candidate can continue to work on other packet components.

Note: The External Reviewers section will still have to be submitted, regardless of how the unit administrator requests the external reviews to give the unit administrator access to start uploading external reviews.  This section can be submitted blank, if needed.

External Reviewers and Submit


The PAD sections are defined at the template level and cannot be reordered. However, attachments within a section can be reordered. Reorder attachments by clicking and holding your mouse over the attachment in which you want to move. Drag and drop it to the new location.

2020 Annual Eval

The candidate can continue to Add, Fill Out Forms and submit sections as they are completed. In some cases, the file naming convention is displayed for your convenience.

Note: Submitting sections will lock that section to the candidate and no further editing will be available within that section. However, candidates can submit sections prior to the deadline to give their unit administrator access to the files. The section can easily be unlocked by a College Coordinator or the Faculty180 Coordinator if additional editing is required prior to the deadline. Unlocking sections after the September deadline will require additional approval. 

All sections must be submitted by the 2nd Tuesday in September.
