Track Faculty Events Business Process

Track Faculty Events is a business process in HR that enables you to track tenure, faculty events, and to manage faculty cases and reporting requirements. This topic provides an overview of how to:

  • Track tenure.

  • Track events.

  • Manage cases.

  • (CAN) Submit Statistics Canada Academic Teaching surveys.

  • (AUS) Report DETYA for the Australian Higher Education sector.

The Track Faculty Events business process enables you to track the tenure eligibility of your faculty using rules and calendars that you establish.

You set up service parameters and service accrual control tables, assign employees to tenure, and calculate tenure for employees. This topic provides complete information to set up tenure tracking.

The Track Faculty Events business process enables you to track the following faculty events:

  • Activities.

  • Administrative posts.

  • Presentations.

  • Publications.

  • Student advisement.

  • Teaching responsibilities.

You can track additional information using theManage Profiles Business Processes business process. Information that can be tracked in profiles includes education (both school and professional training), honors and awards, licenses and certificates, memberships in professional organizations, and special projects.

The Track Faculty Events business process enables you to review employee cases. You can easily prepare a case and send it on to others for review while maintaining the confidentiality of the employee. You define the purpose of the case, for example, academic rank review. This feature enables you to manage the case review process within a case review group (such as a department), by reviewer, reviewer team, process step, dates received and forwarded, recommendations, and final actions.

The Track Faculty Events business process enables you to prepare and submit the StatsCan (Statistics Canada) Academic Teaching Survey for your organization. Statistics Canada requires that all Canadian universities and degree-granting institutions produce full-time (FT) and part-time (PT) Academic Teaching Survey reports. These reports are a legislative requirement.

The Load Teaching Survey Data – FT Survey process creates an FT Academic Teaching Survey record for each employee who meets certain conditions for full time status. The Load Teaching Survey Data – PT Survey process creates a PT Academic Teaching Survey record for each employee who meets the conditions for part time status. To produce these reports, you must set up some additional HR control tables with Statistics Canada fields listed after each table.

This Track Faculty Events business process enables you to generate and submit the reports required by Department of Education, Training, and Youth Affairs (DETYA). DETYA requires regular reporting from the Australian Higher Education sector. The required annual reports are the Full Time and Fractional Staff Report and the Casual Report. Noncompliance with these requirements might cost the institution DETYA grants.
