Summary
A new faculty promotion and tenure (P&T) database, PROMO/TE©, improved efficiency and transparency in academic health centers. The system led to a 10% increase in P&T approvals and significant cost savings.
Area of Science:
- Academic Health Centers
- Faculty Development
- Health Professions Education
Background:
- Faculty promotion and tenure (P&T) processes are critical in Academic Health Centers (AHCs).
- Tracking demographic composition, promotion success, and retention is essential for AHCs.
- Existing P&T systems may lack efficiency and transparency.
Purpose of the Study:
- To review the design, implementation, and utility of the PROMO/TE© database over 12 years.
- To assess the impact of PROMO/TE© on the P&T process in a large southwestern AHC.
- To evaluate PROMO/TE© as a model for other institutions.
Main Methods:
- The PROMO/TE© system was developed to enhance P&T packet creation, application, and review.
- The system was expanded across multiple colleges within the AHC.
- PROMO/TE© was integrated with Workday® and FACFACTS© for comprehensive faculty data tracking.
Main Results:
- PROMO/TE© improved communication, transparency, uniformity, and efficiency in the P&T process.
- Annual cost savings of $217,198 were achieved by eliminating hard copy packets and reducing time spent.
- An average 10% increase in P&T approvals was observed since the system's inception in 2012.
Conclusions:
- The PROMO/TE© system offers significant benefits, including enhanced efficiency and cost savings.
- PROMO/TE© facilitates tracking of P&T trends across various demographic subgroups.
- The PROMO/TE© system serves as a valuable model for other academic health centers.

Statgraphics is a comprehensive statistical software suite designed for both basic and advanced data analysis. Originating in 1980 at Princeton University under Dr. Neil W. Polhemus, it was one of the pioneering tools for statistical computing on personal computers, with its public release in 1982 marking an early milestone in data science software. Over the years, it has evolved into a robust platform for data science, offering tools for regression analysis, ANOVA, multivariate statistics,...

Some researchers gain access to large amounts of data without interacting with a single research participant. Instead, they use existing records to answer various research questions. This type of research approach is known as archival research. Archival research relies on looking at past records or data sets to look for interesting patterns or relationships. For example, a researcher might access the academic records of all individuals who enrolled in college within the past ten years and...

Sometimes we want to see how people change over time, as in studies of human development and lifespan. When we test the same group of individuals repeatedly over an extended period of time, we are conducting longitudinal research. Longitudinal research is a research design in which data-gathering is administered repeatedly over an extended period of time. For example, we may survey a group of individuals about their dietary habits at age 20, retest them a decade later at age 30, and then again...
