How To's

Please see the links to the guides at the top of this page, or through the Search Request sub-page links in the menu on the left side of the screen.
Search Request Module
The Search Request module of the Handson system is designed to fulfill several main functions:
  • H&S departments can submit annual requests for new faculty searches (or request adjustments to carry-forward searches).
  • H&S Dean's Office can track requested searches, approvals/rejections, and process approved requests to generate new Search Authorization records.
  • Improved reporting and transparency, with the availability of year-over-year data.
Requesting a faculty search consists of three parts:
    Creating a Search Packet
    Adding one or more search requests to the packet
    Adding a Cover Memo to the Packet
Once these components have been created, your Search Packet is ready to be submitted to the H&S Dean's Office.
Please see the pages below for specific instructions on how to create a packet and search requests, and how to submit your packet when ready.
