Helpful Tips for Operating and Navigating Faculty Success

Faculty Success allows Clemson instructors and leadership to effectively collect and store faculty activities, such as research, publications, presentations and more. Not only does the system integrate essential information into one centralized location, it also works to streamline annual departmental and University-wide review celebrations with its dynamic set of built-in tools so that you can get the recognition you deserve for your outstanding work.

To experience the full benefits of Faculty Success, it's important that you understand of how the system operates and how you can use each dynamic tool to your full advantage to help achieve your career goals.

Annual Review

Entering Professional Activities Information

All full-time faculty must set goals for the academic year by October and complete a review the following May. Goals are entered under Workload and Goals (at the very bottom of the Faculty Success log-in page in the Administrative Data section).

The annual review will open in May in the Workflow component. You should submit your annual review materials no later than July 15 for the period ending May 15.

Clemson's Faculty Success team has produced some informational videos of the Faculty Success system navigation, as well as various resource guides to assist you with entering your professional activities into the system. We encourage you to explore the following resources by category for further guidance.

Please note: some of the videos below date from when the system was still called Digital Measures. The information in the videos is still relevant though. 

TPR Process within Faculty Success

Tenure, Promotion and Reappointment (TPR) Processes are managed within a special Faculty Success workflow.

The sections are identical to Clemson's previously utilized eTPR system with some added clarity for the External Evaluators section and a slight rearrangement of order to be more intuitive. However, there are some changes related to internal forms involving employment and an upcoming section on joint appointments that will roll out in stages. Other changes from eTPR to Faculty Success-TPR workflow sections were minimized specifically to essential details in order to preserve the TPR process.
