1. Submitting and Accessing 5-year Post-Tenure Review Materials in Vibe (2017-18)

2. Initial points:
Five-year post-tenure review is stipulated by both NJ Statutes and the NJ-AFT Agreement; process is governed by MOA 99
5-year review is tied to the career development funding
MOA 99 indicates that all materials generated for and by this process will be in electronic form
The College is currently using Vibe to manage its personnel processes

3. STAGE I: Submission of materials by the reviewee
Every semester, Academic Affairs will populate Vibe with the list of faculty members scheduled to undergo five-year review that semester. Only this group will have permission to create entries with their applications
Reviewees will receive an with the link to the 5-year review’s starting page

This is what the starting page will look like. Click on “New Five Year Review” to begin:

5. After clicking “New Five Year Review,” each reviewee will see this page. Reviewees should fill out the three fields at the top of the page and follow the other instructions.

6. After filling out and saving the initial page, which creates the “cover page” of the application, each reviewee will receive an from Vibe with a subject line Your submission for Five-Year Review has been received and message body with their name as clickable link

Reviewees will return to this page to add or update materials, to submit materials by the September 15 (or February 15) deadline, and for any later stages of the process that may require their input

7. Please note that the 5-Year Review Process (unlike the Promotions process) requires the the submission only of Course Summary Reports, not all individual student feedback response reports.
All student evaluations from Fall, 2014 and later are stored in PAWS. Unfortunately, PAWS does not currently allow you to share only the Summary Sheets. Therefore, you have two choices:
You may share access to all of your student feedback with the PRC, even though you are not required to do so, from within PAWS. See Individual-Student-Responses-and-Class-Summary.pdf for instructions.
You may print all of the summary sheets, then scan them (or export to PDFs). If you choose this option, you will need to combine all of the PDFs into one file.
Student evaluations from Spring, 2014 and earlier exist only in paper form. You will need to scan these and combine into one PDF.

8. Using the link provided in the from Vibe, reviewees will be taken to a page like this one to upload their materials.
