If the Unit has updated their criteria since initial appointment, the candidate may elect to use either the old or new criteria, and must inform the APT Committee Chair in writing prior to the commencement of the review process which criteria to use for the review. The candidate must sign the criteria to be used at least two weeks prior to the initiation of the review process.
