Background

During the 2019-2020 school year, the Madden School of Business adopted (then) Digital Measures to aid in managing faculty credentials for AACSB accreditation. In March 2020, during the early phases of the Covid-19 pandemic, the College expanded the Digital Measures license to include the whole campus so that the Rank and Tenure submission could be digitized. In September 2020, Watermark rebranded Digital Measures as Faculty Success (FS). Entering the 2023-2024 school year, the College is looking to expand the use of FS.

Goals

  • Refined use of FS for Rank and Tenure

  • Creation of a faculty directory (FS Web Profiles) to be integrated into the College’s website

  • ON HOLD: Expanded use of FS for annual (PAR) and periodic faculty reporting

Partners

  • Academic Affairs, set expectations and communicates with faculty

  • Instructional Design and Academic Technology, manages the FS system and trains and supports faculty

  • Faculty Senate, serves as a platofrm for communication and refinement

  • Proposed Faculty Development Center, coordinates overall approach to supporting faculty in the initiative

  • Rank and Tenure Committee,
