How does it work?
Career steps after inflow: no financial restrictions no competition between candidates
Credits pro rata in case of: - part time appointment
- major tasks, other than education and research- permanent position based on quality assessment
(extension of promotion is possible) Hardship clause in case of care of young children Rules on considerations and objections apply
Consequences negative assessment
Assistant Professor: ending of temporary positionno extension* no permanent position
Associate Professor: possible extension for high potentials or external mobility
or non-academic trajectory
* CLA Dutch Universities includes specific grounds for extension
Consequences current staff
Current staff can choose new career trajectory(in consultation with chair holder, followed by assessment procedure)
Assessment criteria UD and UHD are the same as those of the new career trajectory within the same job profile and job level
Career paths for teachers and researchers will remain based on the Hay job profiles
