Interfolio Lifecycle Management provides provosts, deans, academic affairs, and other higher education leadership a dedicated, central database to look up the institution’s academic employees, including their title, rank, formal appointment(s), status, workload and key dates during their time at the institution.


Honor Academic Employment Commitments and Agreements
Keep track of the specific employment commitments your institution has made to each member of the faculty, regardless of full-time/part-time status—including workload allocation, spousal hires, sabbatical discussions, and similar, hard-to-track-down information.
Make Academic Employment Models Visual and Interactive
Visualize the professional journey and timeline expected for each type of academic employee, in each discipline or administrative unit. View paths for multiple appointments side by side. Consult any individual scholar’s current profile to understand how their expected growth pathway may vary from the standard progression.


Anticipate and Plan for Upcoming Professional Milestones
Forecast and proactively manage academic personnel milestones, including appointment, annual review, tenure, promotion, sabbatical or travel leave, and more. Be prepared for financial and other resourcing implications of faculty availability.
