Reappointment, Tenure & Promotion Workshop for Decision-Makers (Fall 2026)

Dear Deans, Heads, Chairs, and Directors,

 

 

We’re hosting our annual workshop for reappointment, tenure/continuing appointment and promotion for decision-makers. This session is specifically for those who will be reviewing applications and making decisions this academic year. Our session gives decision-makers the opportunity to understand their procedural obligations. It also offers an opportunity to ask questions about topics like conflict of interest and supporting faculty who receive negative feedback.

  

This session will be facilitated by:   

Dipti Periwal, Manager, Labour and Employee Relations

Leslie Phillmore, Associate Vice-President Academic
Jack Brown, Professional Officer, Dalhousie Faculty Association
Travis Perry, Membership Services Officer, Dalhousie Faculty Association 
Kate Crane, Coordinator, Centre for Learning and Teaching

 

Date: September 18, 2026, from 9:00-11:00 am, via TEAMS

 

 

Please circulate this invitation to those on the department and faculty-level review committees. Presentation materials will be uploaded to the Tenure and Promotion for Decision Makers Brightspace community (login required) after the session.

If you do not have access to this page, please email Academic.Staff.Relations@dal.ca by September 16, 2026.

 

To accommodate the participants who will not be able to attend, this session (excluding the Q&A part) will be recorded and uploaded to its Brightspace page (above).
