Building a Case for Academic Job Promotion: Best Practices & CV Review Workshop @ ICUA 2027
Application Deadline: November 6, 2026
Sponsored by: The Urban Affairs Association
Date/Time: Wednesday, April 14, 2027 (10:00 AM – 11:30 AM)
Location: Marriott Marquis Hotel, New York City, NY, USA
EVENT DESCRIPTION
A strong CV is a central pillar for any academic job promotion case, yet the best practices for an effective CV are rarely taught. This hands-on workshop addresses this gap, unpacking what makes a CV successful in a promotion case: the organization, key elements, framing, and gaps that can weaken an otherwise strong record. The session is open to all attendees. Those who want personalized feedback may apply in advance to submit their CV for small group review with senior faculty, and should be comfortable sharing their materials in that setting.
