Faculty members being considered for tenure, permanent status, and/or promotion in the academic year 2018-19 must be made aware of the website URL where they can find the University’s “Guidelines and Information Regarding the Tenure, Permanent Status and Promotion Process for 2018-2019”. This information also should be given to new faculty to familiarize them with our tenure and promotion process. Faculty should be aware, however, that the “Guidelines” are updated annually.

Academic Personnel will send a list of candidates to those units/departments that have tenure and permanent status accruing faculty. The list has the date a faculty member began accruing time towards tenure/permanent status. Please notify Janet Malphurs at 273-1737 or jmmalph@ufl.edu of any necessary corrections.

The candidate must certify that his or her tenure and/or promotion packet is complete before departmental review and voting occurs. Nominees must organize their packet according to a Template, available in the Online Promotion and Tenure (OPT) system, including the order of documents, and numbers and titles of sections. The Template is available by logging into MyUFL. Information and instructional materials on the OPT system are at http://hr.ufl.edu/learnandgrow/toolkits-resource-center/human-resources-toolkits/online-promotion-tenure/.

All candidates must use the OPT system except for the Assistant In series. This title series must use the off-line template at http://www.aa.ufl.edu/tenure.

Faculty or staff training for individual colleges and/or departments can be arranged by contacting Rosie Connolly (rconnolly@aa.ufl.edu) or Janet Malphurs (jmmalph@ufl.edu).

All recommendations must be complete by January 15, 2019. Please schedule college/unit meetings to ensure this deadline is met. College/department deadlines should be communicated to the faculty as soon as possible.
