Thursday, April 25, 2024, 10:30am – 12pm PDT
UW ADVANCE and the Office for Faculty Advancement are partnering to offer a Spring webinar on “Preparing for Faculty Hiring in our Current Climate.” This live-streamed, Webinar-style workshop will be offered twice but will not be recorded. Please feel free to attend one or the other. Each workshop will cover:
- Brief review of current policy, legal, and political climate for faculty hiring;
- Planning ahead for forming search committees, faculty search guidelines and charge, writing job ads, drafting assessment rubrics, and devising an active outreach plan;
- Focused discussion about situations where committee members have prior professional and personal relationships with applicants and how to address potential conflicts of interest, bias, and perceptions of bias.
