Faculty Success Release Notes for January 20th, 2026

Overview

This release contains updates to Faculty Career Pathways, streamlining the process of bulk importing result events and provide added flexibility for managing event-specific impacts on faculty timelines. 

Faculty Career Pathways

Enhancements

Bulk Import Result Events

Administrators can now add multiple result events, such as promotion decisions or tenure approvals, to faculty timelines using the Bulk Import tool.

  1. Navigate to the Manage Faculty section.

  2. Select the bulk import option.

  3. Upload a properly formatted CSV file to update faculty records.

This process reduces manual data entry and helps ensure faculty histories remain accurate.

Event-Type Specific Impacts

Administrators can now apply event-specific impacts to Exception and Result Events in faculty timelines. This allows you to select exactly which base events, such as Annual Review or Sabbatical eligibility, are affected by a change. Targeted adjustments help maintain accurate timeline calculations without disrupting unrelated milestones.

Visit Adding Base Event Specific Impact Options for Exception and Result Events for more details on how to complete this.
