The University of Queensland is committed to sustaining high standards of performance in its academic staff and provides a selection of categories in which academics can perform their duties, viz. Teaching and Research appointments (“T&R”), Research-Only appointments (“RO”), Teaching Focussed appointments (“TF”) and Clinical Academic ("CA"). Confirmation in continuing appointment is based upon the assessment of the staff member’s performance and trajectory over the relevant probationary period against the criteria for the level of appointment set out in Criteria for Academic Performance (PPL 5.70.17). For example, a staff member seeking confirmation at Level B will have the Level B criteria applied. A staff member on probationary appointment, therefore, should aim to establish a trajectory which demonstrates they can achieve and maintain standards expected for that level as appropriate for the discipline. The procedures below outline application submission requirements for applicants and their Heads.

 
Seminars are conducted annually (enrol through Staff Development).
