McMaster Tenure & Promotion - Chairs/Directors & Administrators (Online)

As Chair or Director, navigating through the Tenure, Permanence, and Promotion (T/P/P) process, at times, can have its challenges. This workshop promises to provide Chairs/Directors, and T/P Administrators, with:

• An overview of the Policy and Regulations with Respect to Academic Appointment, Tenure and Promotion (reviewing the Policy in advance of the session is encouraged): https://secretariat.mcmaster.ca/app/uploads/Tenure-and-Promotion-Policy.pdf

• Overview of the teaching portfolio.

• Remarks and guidance on policy and process-related issues from each of the six Faculty Tenure & Promotion Committees.

• An opportunity to ask questions.
