<p>Dear All,</p>
<p>Further to the email below regarding the University's schedule
for consideration of senior academic promotion cases, this email
provides a summary of the Departmental process for considering the
readiness of potential cases and the relevant deadlines for the
next round.</p>
<p>The Academic Professional Appointments Panel (APAP) meets twice a
year, normally in March and October, to consider promotion cases.
Potential cases from within the Department are considered at a
meeting of the Physics Professorial Advisory Group (PAG),
scheduled in advance of each APAP meeting. Staff considered by the
PAG to have a strong enough case to go forward to the Faculty sift
panel are invited to complete the APAP application form, with
support provided by a senior academic (usually a member of the
PAG). <br>
</p>
<p>The next PAG meeting is on the morning of 7th August. If you
wish to be considered for promotion via the next round of APAP,
please discuss this with your line manager in the first instance
and complete the relevant attached Self-Assessment Form. This will
assist you to critically assess your readiness (you will have much
of the information needed via your ADR form). If you decide to put
your case forward for this APAP round, please send your completed
Self-Assessment Form and CV to me by 2pm on 6th August for
consideration at the PAG meeting. Please note that the
self-assessment doesn't need to be a detailed narrative (bullet
points are fine), but should provide the key evidence in support
of each self-assessment score.<br>
</p>
<p>
I will invite staff recommended by the PAG to go forward to the
Faculty sift stage to submit the full APAP application form and
supporting documentation to me by 21st August, to give me time to
consider the full case and to write supporting statements prior to
the Faculty deadline. <br>
</p>
<p>Note that in a change to the process at Faculty level this year,
I will be present at the Faculty panel when our cases are
discussed and so I should be able to input in terms of
strengthening cases going forward from the Faculty sift.</p>
Best wishes,<br>
<br>
Paul
