Criteria and eligibility

To be eligible for academic promotion, you must be able to demonstrate your level of performance against the promotion criteria. Anyone applying for an academic promotion must demonstrate how they meet all category A criteria, and some category B criteria. If individual circumstances mean not all category A criteria can be met, applicants will be able to provide information regarding this at the submission stage.

To see the criteria relevant to the promotion you're applying for, please select the appropriate filters for grade and contract type below. A specific criteria document will be provided - if you wish to make notes against the criteria, please make a copy of the document. Always refer back to this page for the most up to date criteria information.
