Committee Forms Use Cases

To provide a model for how each institution can best use committee forms, the following use cases, drawn from real-world examples of how clients are using the committee forms tool, have been prepared.

 

Committee Forms Use Cases

Vote

    Review, Promotion & Tenure
  2. Click the Committee Forms  tab on the left-hand side.

  7. Enter the Number of Yes Votes for the Question field. Enter a description if desired. Click Save when finished.
    • Repeat this step two more times, but title the Question field Number of No Votes and Number of Abstentions for the next two.

      It is suggested to also add a Text: Paragraph question labeled "Review Notes" to allow respondents to record notes.
