Faculty Success Updates - October 2024
October 2024
New University CV Template
Many faculty members have identified challenges using the Word version of the University CV template from the Office of Faculty Affairs website. In particular, users have sent questions about formatting and where certain activities should appear.
In response, the Office of Faculty Affairs convened an ad hoc committee of faculty and administrative staff members to identify the issues and develop solutions, an effort that led to the creation of a new University CV Template.
Using Faculty Success can streamline the creation of a CV in the recognized University format. Faculty Success can easily generate a CV in PDF or Word format. From the Word output, users can further refine and finalize their CV.
This updated University CV Template will be the default CV format for processes next year. For any processes requiring a CV to be in the University format, either version (the updated or the traditional one) is permitted.
The new template has updated formatting and a companion annotated version that explains each of the subheadings with example citations. Faculty Success is the best way to generate a CV in the University format. It pulls your existing activities in Faculty Success into the correct areas of the University CV template and in the correct format.
The Office of Faculty Affairs recommends that you use the pre-configured University CV report in Faculty Success to generate your CV in the University format. With much of your recent activity documented in Faculty Success already, as a result of your involvement in the annual reporting process, you are well on your way to getting your CV generated in the University format.
The Office of Faculty Affairs thanks the members of the ad hoc committee who worked on these improvements: Allen Davis, Philip Evers, Jason Farman, John Fourkas, Jeffrey Harring, Cy Keener, Elizabeth Martinez, Valerie Orlando, Linda Steiner, Anat Szendro Sevilla and Jackie Takacs.
Elevate and Faculty Success
Faculty Success appointment and personnel data will be transitioning to Workday/Elevate with the November 15 launch. This will result in a few changes to the Faculty Success system.
- Active users in Faculty Success will be limited to those who have academic appointments.
- The primary appointment for tenured and tenure-track faculty members will now always be their tenure home unit. Previously, the primary appointment was determined by FTE split percentages.
- Workday/Elevate has adopted the street address for the Personal and Contact Information screen (the integration with PHR has used the building and room number). Going forward, the campus street address will be populated by Workday/Elevate. Users can manually update their building and room numbers on the Personal and Contact Information screen.
