5th Year Reappointment Consideration for a Multi-Year Contract Procedure

The following procedures apply to professional staff employees who will be considered for a multi-year contract:

  1. The candidates must undergo a thorough and rigorous review of his or her qualification for continued employment at the University and to present evidence of past performance and future potential such as to warrant the granting of a multi-year contract in the candidate's professional staff position.

  2. The candidate must prepare a written self evaluation which shall include: a review of past performance and achievements bearing on the contemplated personnel action; a complete description of current professional responsibilities; and analysis of professional contributions and potential for continued development; and a statement of professional goals and objectives. The candidate may include any additional information which he/she deems appropriate.

  3. The candidate must submit a proposed list of employees serving in a regular and continuing functional working relationship to the candidate. After consultation with the candidate, the supervisor will select such employees who will provide written appraisals of the candidate.
    In addition to making retention decisions, the annual performance appraisal process is an important tool for improving employee’s performance through goal setting and providing comments concerning job performance.

This process will give the supervisor an opportunity to assess the employee’s accomplishments, skills, knowledge and abilities. Please note that this assessment will be based on performance since the employee’s last evaluation and/or reappointment. The retention decision is based on the employee’s entire professional record at William Paterson University.

The supervisor should notify each employee eligible for reappointment of his/her responsibilities concerning the process and a deadline date when materials are due ensuring that all of the procedures are adhered to according to established deadlines.
