Faculty Success
Purdue University Fort Wayne uses Faculty Success by Watermark, software designed to organize, manage, and report on faculty activities and CV data. Like many other HLC institutions seeking to obtain better understanding and organization of faculty faculty activities, Purdue Fort Wayne benefits from fewer request of faculty for this type of information, gains additional insight into faculty efforts, and has improved reporting at all levels of the academic organization.

Workflow
Faculty reviews are complex, time consuming and involve many people on campus, including faculty, committee members, department chairs, deans and vice chancellor. Digitizing these processes, including annual evaluations and promotion and tenure, eliminates manual tasks, reduces inefficiency and errors and improves the ability to track progress. Best of all, our new process management solution leverages the data and customization that’s already available in Faculty Success. Workflow is our solution for digitizing and managing your faculty processes.
