Accreditation-ready faculty evidence, always. Hire to promotion, on one record.
Faculty Management is the system of record for your faculty: recruitment, workload, activity, review and promotion on one governed record that auto-populates from the SIS, LMS and accreditation data you already run on Creatrix. AACSB, MQA, NCAAA and TEQSA evidence (and NAAC/NBA where you need it) assembles itself as work happens, with zero faculty data entry.
The problem
A standalone faculty tool can store data. It can't own the source.
Interfolio-style faculty and credentialing tools ask faculty to re-enter what the institution already knows. CVs are re-keyed each cycle, dossiers are assembled by hand, activity reports are chased over email, and accreditation evidence is rebuilt from scratch before every visit.
The operating model
One faculty record, and it maintains itself.
Four design choices turn faculty management from a form faculty fill in into an operating layer the institution runs on. The record populates from source, and evidence is a by-product of daily work.
Recruitment, appointment, workload, activity, review and promotion live on a single governed faculty record.
Teaching, load and outcomes flow from the SIS, LMS and scheduling you already run. Publications sync from the indexes.
Every appointment, course and publication becomes accreditation evidence the moment it happens, ready to submit.
Creatrix AI assembles dossiers and drafts reports from the record: grounded, explainable and logged.
Inside the product
The whole faculty record, in one place.
This is the application, not a diagram. Move through the surfaces your teams actually work in: the record, promotion cases, accreditation evidence, activity reports and leadership analytics.

Different from the lifecycle. The Faculty Lifecycle explains how faculty operations connect. This is the product that runs one part of it: Faculty Management.
Lifecycle or product
The lifecycle is the operating model. This is the product that runs it.
Two pages, two jobs. Read the lifecycle to understand how faculty operations connect to the rest of the institution; read this page to see the application your teams log into on Monday.
One of institutional lifecycles: the governed model for how faculty are recruited, developed, evaluated, promoted and retained.
The application that runs it: the faculty record, promotion cases, accreditation evidence, activity reports and leadership analytics.
How do appointment, workload, research, review and promotion connect, and what does each stage feed downstream?
What do faculty, HoDs, faculty affairs and QA teams actually see and do in each screen?
The full faculty operating model, plus how it meets academic operations, outcomes and accreditation.

More than a faculty tool
Why it beats a standalone faculty tool.
A standalone faculty or credentialing tool (Interfolio-style) is a place to assemble faculty data. Faculty Management is the operating layer underneath, because it owns the systems the data comes from.
Faculty re-key CVs and activity every cycle.
Zero. The record auto-populates from the SIS, LMS and research sources you already run.
Assembled from scratch before each visit; MQA, NCAAA or TEQSA rarely covered.
A by-product of daily work, native to AACSB, MQA, NCAAA, TEQSA, and NAAC/NBA.
Its own silo, disconnected from teaching and outcomes.
One governed record shared with the whole Academic OS.
One function: dossiers, or reporting, or profiles.
Hire to promotion on one record, end to end.
Built for every role
One product. Five views of the same record.
One institution-wide view of faculty strength, readiness and risk.
Workload equity and the promotion pipeline for the department, live.
Run cases, contracts and reviews without chasing five systems.
One record that fills itself: less re-keying, clearer status.
Faculty evidence as a by-product of daily operations.
What faculty and academic teams say about running on Creatrix.
Creatrix provides an excellent platform for planning and coordinating teaching activities, with a clear line of sight to learning outcomes, assessments, professional competency standards, entrustable professional activities and graduate attributes.
A comprehensive and user-friendly platform that seamlessly integrates academic, administrative and evaluation processes in one place.

Frequently asked
Plain answers about faculty operations.
What is faculty lifecycle management software?
Faculty lifecycle management software governs how a university recruits, onboards, operates, develops, evaluates, promotes and retains its faculty on one shared data model.
In Creatrix Campus by Anubavam, the Faculty Lifecycle is one of institutional lifecycles in the Academic Operating System, running on one core Platform & Data/AI layer. Every appointment, course, publication, review and decision lives in one faculty record.
How is this different from an HR system or a single faculty tool?
An HR system manages employment: contracts, payroll, leave. A single faculty tool covers one part of the academic side: workload, or reviews, or recruitment.
The Faculty Lifecycle covers the academic operation of faculty end-to-end on one record: recruitment, appointment, workload, teaching, research, development, review, promotion, retention and exit. It governs the academic decisions HR is not built to make.
Does it handle promotion and tenure (RPT)?
Yes. The lifecycle treats RPT as a structured case on the faculty record. Publications, teaching feedback, service and external letters are assembled into a dossier the faculty member reviews before it proceeds.
Committee workflow, external reviewer management and conflict screening sit on the same record, with a continuous audit trail.
How does it support AACSB, MQA, NCAAA and TEQSA faculty requirements?
Faculty data sits at the core of most accreditation standards: qualifications, workload, research output, development hours and student feedback. Because that evidence is captured the moment it happens, on one faculty record, criteria for AACSB, MQA, NCAAA and TEQSA (and NAAC/NBA/NIRF for institutions in India) are mapped as configuration, not redevelopment.
When a regulator changes a metric, you change a rule, not the release.
Does it manage adjunct and visiting faculty?
Yes. Adjunct, visiting, contract and emeritus faculty are first-class records with their own appointment terms, workload and contribution data. They flow through the same lifecycle as full-time faculty, with role-aware access and governance.
How does AI help with dossiers and promotion readiness?
Four named capabilities run inside the lifecycle: dossier auto-assembly pulls publications, teaching feedback and service from the record, and the faculty member reviews it before it proceeds. Promotion-readiness scoring is continuous, transparent and gap-specific. Retention-risk prediction surfaces early signals to HoD and HR. Reviewer matching screens conflicts of interest.
Faculty decisions affect careers, so AI assists and humans decide. Every suggestion is explainable, logged and policy-governed.
How does it connect to our existing HRMS and SIS?
The faculty record is the canonical academic record of a faculty member. It federates with HRMS for employment data and the SIS for teaching assignments. Integration runs as events through the platform's integration layer, not nightly batches.
The Faculty Lifecycle is not a replacement for payroll; it is the academic operating layer above it.
