CBA Article 14.3

• The promotion of a tenured faculty unit employee
  shall normally be effective the beginning of the
  sixth (6th) year after appointment to his/her
  current academic rank/classification. In such
  cases, the performance review for promotion shall
  take place during the year preceding the
  effective date of the promotion. This provision
  shall not apply if the faculty unit employee
  requests in writing that s/he not be considered.
• Leaves of absence do not stop the normal

Professor PlutoTenured Seeking Promotion

• Tenured faculty have the option of not being
  considered for promotion
• Leaves of absence do not stop the clock
• Tenured faculty should only list
  activities/accomplishments completed since their
  last promotion.
• Include materials after WPAF was closed during a
  previous review e.g., student evaluations
• Tenured faculty need not develop a Professional
  Development Plan (PDP)

32
RTP Guidelines

• Must submit WPAF when applying for tenure and/or
  promotion
• 2-yr. reappointment may only result from full
  WPAF review, not a modified performance review
  (i.e., new faculty review).
• During first year of a 2-year reappointment,
  probationary faculty must complete a short review
  (periodic evaluation).
• PDPs are 2-year plans completed by probationary
  faculty. They are not personnel actions so
  timelines are developed at the College level.
  They are to be completed every two years
  regardless of whether a short or long review
  (WPAF) is being submitted.
• Collegial Letters are important
