Frequently Asked Questions from Candidates

What information are the External Evaluators sent?
When we request an evaluation from an external evaluator, we only send them a copy of your CV and your Personal Statement.听 They do not receive any of the other documentation submitted.

What about appendices?

Try to keep the appendices to a minimum (respect the maximum dossier length below). Documents that demonstrate your "international reputation" or letters of reference are accepted.

Do not include publication reprints.听 Do not include appendices such as: scans of notes from students, photos of award plaques, invited lecturer invites, diagrams of research, posters from conferences etc.
听

How long should my dossier be?
The dossier should not exceed听85 pages.听 Please note that many people get promoted with dossiers that are much smaller than听85 pages.

Do candidates need that online teaching activities report?
No, this is no longer a part of the promotion dossier documents. It should not be submitted.
听

How long does it take to get promoted to Full Professor?

From the time the Faculty receives your dossier from the Department, until you receive the official approval of promotion from the Provost can take from 8 months to 1.5 years.

Once the Faculty receives the dossier from your department, we request the external evaluator letters, receive the letters and the Faculty Promotions Committee (FPC) makes their recommendation.听 If we do not receive听4 strong external evaluator letters, we may need to request more names from you.听 The final Faculty level decision is not made until at least听4 strong letters have been received.听 If the Faculty Promotion Committee recommends promotion, the recommendation is sent to the Provost (generally this happens within 3 months of receiving your dossier from the department).听 The Secretariat then arranges for a Statutory Selections Committee (SSC) to review your dossier. There can be delays in scheduling SSC meetings. Once the SSC reviews the dossier and makes a recommendation, the Board of Governors then need to approve the promotion.听 A letter will then be sent approving your promotion.

Note: If the Faculty Promotions Committee has deferred recommending promotion, you will receive a communication from the Vice-Dean, Faculty Affairs, within one month of the Faculty Promotions Committee meeting.
