Dossier Resources from your UHCC PD Consortium

Aloha Faculty,

Summer is often a time to reflect on our past accomplishments and create our dossiers and contract renewals for submission in the upcoming academic year. To help you prepare for this important step in your career, the UHCC Professional Development Consortium is offering the following support.
Dossier Workshops
We have compiled resources from our Dossier Writing 101 series and other workshops for your reference.
Tenure and Promotion/Contract Renewal Q&A Document 
The tenure and promotion/contract renewal application process can be complex, confusing, and overwhelming. Therefore, we want to know how we can best support you.
Help us help you by sending in your questions about the tenure and promotion and/or contract renewal process. The UHCC Professional Development Consortium will do its best to find out the answers and make a compiled Q&A resource document available to all faculty in the summer. Deadline to submit your questions is Friday, June 3.The Q&A document will be released in July.
BONUS!
We have a special treat if you have worked with OER.  Check out the document Incorporating OER Efforts into Review Dossiers.
 
We wish you the best this summer as you prepare your professional documents!
With aloha,
Your UHCC Professional Development Consortium
