Welcome
This webpage includes all major documents that you will need to complete classroom and student evaluations of probationary faculty, including links to online forms. These documents can be downloaded for your convenience.
Using the Tenure Shells on Canvas
Completed evaluations for probationary faculty and other important documents are now collected in Canvas. Each committee has its own shell. Committee members should upload documents directly to the Canvas shell. Nicole Gray from FA made a video on how to upload files to a tenure shell on Canvas. When you watch the video below, substitute "De Anza" instead of "Foothill" and my name instead of "Patricia Gibbs."
Watch the Canvas Tenure Shell instructional video.

As of Fall Quarter 2020, evaluation procedures have been adapted and forms have been converted to "Smart Sheet" fillable forms. Please see the most recent documents and procedures for the J1s and J2s below.
