Faculty Web Profile FAQs

Faculty web profiles appearing on ATSU’s public-facing website:

  • Market ATSU to prospective students, researchers, faculty, ATSU Board of Trustees, etc.
  • Add to ATSU’s story and highlight our esteemed faculty
  • Establish visibility/connections for ATSU alumni or other donors
  • Increase professional collaboration on grants, teaching, and service

Data that displays on the new faculty web profile is sourced from Faculty Success (previously Digital Measures).  This document serves to provide instruction and guidance on best practices for faculty web profiles displayed on ATSU’s webpage. Following are additional resource links to aid in developing faculty web profiles:

How do I change information on my Web Profile?

Your web profile is created and updated using Faculty Success data content.  If you add new publications, presentations, awards/honors, service… in Faculty Success and Allow Sharing is “Yes” your web profile will update instantly or with a screen refresh.

How do I get a photo added or changed?

Your Web Profile photo is managed by Communications and Marketing (C&M) and not the imported photo in Faculty Success.  C&M offers periodic photo sessions on Campus.  If you are offsite you can submit a ticket to C&M with your own Photo and C&M will resize the image and place in the Web Profile repository.  Photo requirements are:

  • 300px tall by 72 dpi
  • Solid background; preferably grey background

Why can’t I add new Grants or Scheduled Teaching?

ATSU Grants are updated quarterly from Sponsored Programs in Faculty Success.  In addition, our Student Information System (SIS) Anthology Student updates nightly when new courses start with course and instructor(s) information.

How can I make suggestions for changes, additions to the Faculty Success system?

Submit an ITS ticket for any suggestions for improvement that you may have.
