1 Promotion guide Understanding the tracks Librarian – tenure and non-tenure tracks Clinicians and Researchers - tenure and two non-tenure tracks –Tenure track Investigator clinician educator (ICE) or Investigator educator (IE); Titles are Assistant Professor, Associate Professor, Professor –Non tenure tracks Clinician investigator educator (CIE)/Research educator (RE) Titles are Assistant Professor (Clinical) or Assistant Professor (Research), Associate Professor (Clinical) or Associate Professor (Research), Professor (Clinical) or Professor (Research) Clinical/Research track Titles are Clinical Assistant Professor or Research Assistant Professor, Clinical Associate Professor or Research Associate Professor, Clinical Professor or Research Professor

2 Understanding full-time and part-time faculty appointments and full-time and part-time employment designations Defined as full-time faculty appointment track Is unrelated to your employment designation Employment designation depends on the number of hours you work a week – full time employment is defined as 35 hours per week A full time faculty appointment may have a full-time or a part-time employment designation Your benefits depend on your employment designation not your faculty appointment track i.e., Assistant Professor (Clinical), appointment track is Clinician Investigator Educator (FULL TIME APPOINTMENT TRACK), works a minimum 35 hours/week, employment designation is FULL TIME i.e., Assistant Professor (Clinical), appointment track is Clinician Investigator Educator (FULL TIME APPOINTMENT TRACK), works three days a week, employment designation is PART TIME

3 Tenure tracks Tenure track – –Investigator clinician educator (ICE) –Investigator educator (IE)

4 Criteria for Promotion and Tenure (Tenure Track) National and International recognition Sustained and substantial funding from national peer- reviewed funding agencies (NIH, NSF, government and private sector) Teaching Service Invitations to lecture at national and international meetings Leadership role in planning sessions for scientific meetings Membership on editorial boards of prominent journals Membership on research peer review and scientific and professional advisory committees Receipt of honors for scientific and scholarly achievements Development of a upward trajectory with renewal of NIH funding Publication of major peer- reviewed papers – first and last author Extraordinary distinction as educators Attraction of productive graduate students and postdoctoral fellows Artman II requirements Hospital and school committees Innovators Breakthrough in technology or education Innovators Breakthrough in technology or education

5 Necessary: National and international reputationNational and international reputation Sustained NIH funding as the PI, including but not limited to renewals of grantsSustained NIH funding as the PI, including but not limited to renewals of grants Additional considerations: Federal grants (non-NIH) and non federal grantsFederal grants (non-NIH) and non federal grants Peer reviewed publications (especially 1st or last- author publications)Peer reviewed publications (especially 1st or last- author publications) Innovative technologiesInnovative technologies Non-peer reviewed publicationsNon-peer reviewed publications Book chaptersBook chapters AbstractsAbstracts PresentationsPresentations Tenure Decisions

6 TENURE STATISTICS T9 – T5 (FIRST FIVE YEARS OF PROBATION) The data show that for the period T9 to T5, there are no statistically significant differences between those candidates awarded tenure and those candidates denied tenure for any of the metrics studied. T5 – T0 (FIVE YEARS LEADING UP TO TENURE REVIEW) The data also show that for the period T5 to T, there are statistically significant differences between those candidates awarded tenure and those candidates denied tenure for all of the metrics studied.

7 Non tenure tracks Clarification of Appointment Tracks Clinician Investigator / Educator Track, a full-time non-tenure track for those faculty members in clinical departments whose primary career is in the provision of clinical care and who devote a substantial portion of their efforts to teaching, research, and service. Research / Educator Track, a full- time non-tenure track for those faculty members in any department whose primary career is in research, but who devote a portion of their efforts to education and service. Clinical Track, a non-tenure track for those faculty members in clinical departments whose primary career is in the provision of clinical care and who devote some time to teaching, research and/or service. Research Track, a non-tenure track for those faculty involved in part-time or time-limited research in other's laboratories and who devote limited time to teaching and service

8 Faculty on this track should have substantial contributions to academic mission of the school. Scholarly activities, which include excellence in teaching and program leadership, may not require national reputation. Promotion may be achieved for excellence in education, clinical care, research collaboration and administration Three year contracts Clinical Investigator Educator/Research Educator tracks

9 Changes to our promotion policies – Subcommittee of C21 (2009) to focus specifically on faculty recognition and development and to propose criteria to ensure promotion of full- time non-tenured faculty engaged in the educational enterprise. Page 5 http://webdoc.nyumc.org/nyumc_d6/files/faculty/Policies_and_Procedures_for_Appt_Pro motion_and_Tenure_Feb-1-2013-FINAL.pdf A central tenet of the recommendations is that scholarly contributions to the academic mission are not always captured by the criteria traditionally applied by institutional promotions committees. In particular, as proposed by Levinson and Rubinstein, “excellence in education represents a valued academic endeavor, and will be sufficient for promotion even in the absence of publications and national reputation” (Levinson, W., Rubenstein A., New England Journal of Medicine Vol 341, No 11: 840-843, September 9, 1999). Scholarship in an academic medical center must be considered in a broader context than that of peer reviewed publications, grants or national reputation. The subcommittee’s recommendations note that promotion on the existing non-tenure Clinician Investigator/ Educator Scholar or Research/Educator Scholar tracks should not be defined by publications alone, but should include criteria that capture educational excellence and other significant contributions to the academic missions. The committee recommended that promotion on these tracks should be reserved for individuals who distinguish themselves as teachers, mentors, program leaders and scientific collaborators.

10 Criteria for Promotion (Non Tenure Track) Excellence in academic translational research (50/50) Excellence in Teaching (Educators) Excellence in Teaching (Educators) Excellence in Clinical Care (Clinicians) Excellence in Clinical Care (Clinicians) Excellence in Service Contributing investigator in scientific or educational research that aids in grant funding for the institution with publication of major peer-reviewed papers Invitations to lecture at national and international meetings Grants reviewer or membership on editorial boards Supervision of research trainees Teaching portfolio Exceptional mentorship and training of students Teaching awards Leadership in medical student or resident programs Development of innovative curriculum Election to distinguished medical societies Leadership in professional societies Invitations to lecture at national and international meetings Development of new clinical treatments or concepts Contributions to education administration Distinguished service as program, course or clinical service director Service on hospital or school committees

11 Clinician Academic achievement including scholarship and teaching Focus on Clinical activities Reputation as a clinical expert Leadership roles related to area of clinical expertise Development of new clinical treatments or concepts Didactic teaching with learner evaluations Scholarship to include peer-reviewed clinical publications related to clinical care, safety, quality, patient protocol/guideline development Election to distinguished medical societies with leadership roles Leadership in professional societies Invitations to lecture at national and international meetings Serves as ad-hoc reviewer or editorial board member for clinical journals Serves on hospital and school committees related to clinical expertise

12 Educator Focus on educational activities Educators take a scholarly approach to teaching including development of new curricula, assessment models or innovative teaching programs. This may or may not be reflected by peer-reviewed publications but evaluations are needed for determination of quality and quantity of teaching Development of educational curriculum including new curricula, web based modules, simulation, assessment tools, educational policy Didactic teaching with learner evaluations to demonstrate effectiveness of teaching programs Mentorship including number of mentees, publications and evaluations from mentees Administrative roles with evaluations of programs Invitations to speak about education Funding to conduct educational research Teaching and/or mentoring awards Such evidence, which should be documented in an academic portfolio, could include distinguished leadership of a medical school course, residency or fellowship program. The individual should demonstrate of a high level of commitment to the teaching mission above and beyond what is expected from the average faculty member.

13 Researcher Focus on research Serving as a collaborating investigator that aids in obtaining or renewing grant funding for the institution Grants reviewer at the national or regional level Facilitating enrollment of patients in clinical trials Providing tissue specimens for biorepositories Providing clinical input and direction for applications of basic science research Oversight of a research core Evidence of scholarly activity through peer reviewed publications of results of observations Member of editorial board or peer reviewer for scientific journals Invited lecturer or visiting professorship Invited presenter at national or regional meetings Member of national consensus panel or consultant to externally funded not-for- profit organization Role in planning sessions of professional scientific societies Contributing to the supervision of translational and clinical research trainees Distinguished service as a program or course director related to research Service on hospital or school committees

14 Non tenure tracks Clarification of Appointment Tracks Clinical Track, a part-time non- tenure track for those faculty members in clinical departments whose primary career is in the provision of clinical care and who devote some time to teaching, research and/or service. Research Track, a part-time non- tenure track for those faculty involved in part-time or time- limited research in other's laboratories and who devote limited time to teaching and service

15 Promotion on basis of excellence in clinical service Fulfills roles in clinical service, education and research that are critical to the mission of the medical center but academic scholarship and publications of peer-reviewed papers are limited For research track, usually has no independent funding, works in the laboratory of another PI Clinical /Research tracks
