Subject: FW: Upcoming workshops on going up for full professor and the rest of the promotion process
Dear Associate Professors and Continuing Status Professionals,

I am writing to invite you to the upcoming workshops on the promotion process.  The first workshop will help you prepare to go up for full, even if you are not expecting to go up for promotion in the coming year.  The panelists include two experienced heads and a current and former chair of the University P&T Committee-Professors Elizabeth Glisky, Linda Shaw,  Tannis Gibson, and Joceline Lega.  The other workshops coordinated by Laura Hunter, Kory Floyd and other faculty leaders are specifically focused on helping you prepare for the review process itself.  If you have questions, please let me know.

*         Going Up for Full: Wednesday, February 22, 3:30-5:00, Modern Languages, Room 310, RSVP here<https://uarizona.co1.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_cAplAy3983KvLw1>.

This workshop will include panel and table discussions of how to document your leadership of administrative and service initiatives to demonstrate impact.  The discussion will take note of The Modern Language Association's Standing Still survey <http://www.mla.org/assocprof_survey> of the career patterns of associate professors, including female faculty.  Female and other diverse faculty sometimes face disproportionate service demands that can delay advancement to full professor, as discussed in The Ivory Ceiling of Service Work<http://www.aaup.org/article/ivory-ceiling-service-work#.VLRYqntMWpl> and in broader accounts of the challenges facing mid-career faculty such as "Why are associate professors so unhappy?<http://chronicle.com/article/Why-Are-Associate-Professors/132071/>"

*         Making a Statement: Thursday, March 30, 8:00-9:30, Old Main Building, Silver and Sage Room, RSVP here<https://uarizona.co1.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_bJ8OrxcosjkSxQV>.  This workshop focuses on the Candidate Statements that introduce Promotion Dossiers and provide an opportunity for associate professors to discuss their institutional leadership and impact.

*         Promotion Opportunities for Faculty not on the Tenure Track: Tuesday, April 4, 8:30-10:00, Old Main Building, Silver and Sage Room, RSVP here<https://uarizona.co1.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_3ORJT77Oa7HprU1>.  This workshop provides a hands-on opportunity to learn about resources and strategies for engaging in conversations with supervisors about promotion.

*         Preparing the Promotion Dossier: Thursday, April 13, 8:00-9:15, Koffler Building, Room 218, no RSVP required.  The Annual Workshop on Promotion, Tenure, and Continuing Status provides an overview of the review process for candidates, committee members, staff, and administrators.

*         Using Teaching and Outreach Portfolios to Document Impact: Wednesday, April 26, 8:30-10:00, Old Main Building, Silver and Sage Room, RSVP here<https://uarizona.co1.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_5BTEznusOYtJRGt>.  This workshop will help candidates document their achievements in teaching portfolios<http://facultyaffairs.arizona.edu/sites/facultyaffairs/files/2017-06-teachingportfolio.pdf> and an optional service and outreach portfolio<http://facultyaffairs.arizona.edu/sites/facultyaffairs/files/2017-08-serviceoutreachportfolio_updated_20160913.pdf> that is particularly useful for associate professors who have been broadly involved in leading initiatives and serving in varied institutional and community roles.
