Building and Managing Your Faculty Profile
The My Profile menu item in Faculty Success is your personalized workspace for reviewing, updating and exporting your academic activities. Specifically, from this page, you can manage your academic records, customize your layout, and access tools for reporting.
Each activity you enter into Faculty Success, such as courses taught, publishing a paper or serving on a committee, is referred to as a record within the system. You may also see the term activity used throughout the system. These two terms are used interchangeably and refer to the same type of information; entries that document your academic contributions.
Header Details
The page header shows the faculty member’s profile picture and the following information;
- [Name Prefix] [First Name] [Last Name], [Name Suffix]
- [Institution Name in FS] [College Name]
- [Department Name]
The profile picture is pulled from the Personal and Contact Information screen, specifically from the field labeled Photograph. If a photograph is not available, the profile will display your first and last initials.
Connecting Your ORCID ID
From the My Profile page, you can connect your ORCID ID to Faculty Success. Linking your ORCID account allows your publication records to be synced seamlessly between the two systems.

The Export feature on the My Profile page allows you to quickly download your activity data in a structured format. You can choose from options such as a formatted Quick CV or a Custom Report, depending on your reporting needs.

Searching For and Modifying a Specific Activity
The Search bar at the top of the My Profile page allows you to locate a specific record you've already entered to review and modify it as needed. You can search by keywords, titles or other information included in the record.

For tips on using the search functionality, refer to Finding and Editing Existing Activities.
Viewing Categories Without Records
Below the search bar, you'll find a toggle labeled Show categories with no records in profile. Enabling this option allows you to view all categories available to you including those for which have no records entered into them yet.

This feature is useful if you're unsure whether a category exists for certain type of activity. It also helps identify categories where you may need to enter new information.
Need Help Deciding What to Enter?
