Our combination of out-of-the-box, custom, and self-service reporting options helps you and your faculty find answers, surface insights, and quickly deliver reports.
Easily create specialized reports that help faculty and staff measure, analyze, and reflect on activity trends and details. This could be annual activity reports and dossiers for faculty review; compendia of scholarship, research, or other activities; on-the-fly reports of faculty expertise; and more. Plus, with a self-service report builder, faculty can curate, filter, and format activity data into a tailored CV for conference submissions, grant or award applications, or other specialized requests.
Faculty Success also includes popular prebuilt reports aligned to regional and professional accreditation specifications, making it simple to catalog faculty qualifications for self-studies.
Tie degrees, accomplishments, and other credentials and evidence together with course assignments to document how each faculty member is qualified to teach each of their courses. Run credentials through your institution’s review and approval process. Then report your roster of faculty qualifications to your institutional and programmatic accreditors using prebuilt templates designed with their specific requirements in mind.
Faculty web profiles rank among the most-read sections of any university’s website, so you want to be sure they’re always accurate. With Watermark Faculty Success, the latest faculty information can be automatically pulled into web profiles, so you can be confident they’re telling the right story to prospective students, peers seeking collaborators, and others looking for more details of faculty accomplishments.
Surface faculty accomplishments and nurture professional development with a tool designed specifically to help administrators manage complex faculty review, reappointment, promotion and tenure processes. Simple, visual process mapping makes it easy to lay out your process flows, define forms for participants, add branches for conditional rules, and establish visibility guidelines.
Create clearly defined roles and more transparent review processes that run predictably every time, including faculty based on information you’ve already captured (even joint appointments). Engage all the right participants in the faculty review process, from reviewees and administrators to committee members and external reviewers.
Automated reminders keep the process on track, and secure online access empowers participants to do their part, wherever they are. And with a singular overview providing visibility across all the cases in flight, administrators can monitor progress, pinpoint risks, and intervene where needed to keep things moving. The result is a more efficient (and dare we say more satisfying) review experience for all involved.
Faculty Success is just one part of a suite of complementary solutions that intelligently share data, giving you a comprehensive understanding of your institution’s effectiveness so you can drive progress.
The integration between Faculty Success and Watermark Course Evaluations & Surveys attaches course evaluation results to teaching records in each faculty member’s activity profile, making it easy to review student feedback on the classroom experience alongside faculty accomplishments and development opportunities.

"Adopting web profiles was a big driver of our project to standardize and get faculty information on the web. Now students know what the faculty are doing, their background and expertise. The grants office, university relations, and the community knows the expertise of the faculty members on campus."
