Faculty Accomplishments
Enhancements
Profile Photo Management
Faculty members can now easily upload and edit their profile photos directly from the main profile view in Faculty Success.
For more information, see Building and Managing Your Faculty Profile.
My Profile Export: Custom Report Selection
Faculty members can now run and export reports directly from the My Profile page. Selecting Custom Report from the Export menu opens a pane where users can choose from available report templates, specify date ranges, and select an export format.
For more information, see Exporting Data as a CV or Custom Report.
AI Parsing: Location Parsing
AI parsing in Faculty Success now more accurately identifies and maps location information from CVs and other documents, including countries, state names, and state abbreviations. This enhancement reduces the need for manual corrections.
AI Parsing: Enhanced Progress Updates
The AI parsing loading screen now displays real-time progress updates when importing records. Instead of generic status messages, faculty members can view the activity types and record counts identified during processing.
Unified PDF Viewer Across All Browsers
Faculty Success now features a consolidated, modern PDF viewer that delivers a consistent interface and reliable viewing experience across all supported web browsers. This update ensures seamless access to core actions like printing and downloading while boosting platform stability, security, and document management capabilities.
Reviews, Promotion, and Tenure
Enhancements
New Reappointment Workflow Template Type
Administrators can now classify workflow templates specifically as Reappointment, enabling more precise tracking, categorization, and reporting for faculty reappointment reviews. This update streamlines administrative setup by applying standard review defaults while preventing reappointment data from being lumped into generic review categories.

Faculty Career Pathways
Enhancements
Improved Career Path Change Confirmation
The confirmation message displayed after an administrator changes a faculty member's Career Path can now be dismissed by selecting the link within the message, moving keyboard focus away from it, or selecting the close (X) button. The message remains visible until the administrator interacts with it, ensuring that the link remains accessible.
Improved Mobile Experience
Career Pathways pages now display more effectively on smaller screens. Tabs no longer overlap, horizontal scrolling has been removed from Base and Auxiliary Events pages, and unnecessary spacing at the top of the page has been reduced.
Event Type Displayed in Timeline Details
Administrators can now see an event's type when viewing its details from a faculty member's timeline.
The Event Type appears in the View Event pane for both Base Events and Auxiliary Events, providing additional context without requiring administrators to navigate elsewhere.
Highlighting Newly Created Career Paths and Events
Newly created Career Paths, Base Events, and Auxiliary Events are now highlighted in their respective libraries, making them easier to identify immediately after creation. This highlighting is available in both card and list views for events.
