Common Questions Provosts Ask About NEOED

Click on questions to expand answers:

NEOED streamlines faculty searches by providing search committees with a centralized platform to review candidates, add comments, and track progress. The system allows you to configure approval workflows specific to faculty searches, manage multiple committee members with appropriate permissions, and maintain compliance through automated processes. Search chairs can manage their recruitment folders independently while HR maintains oversight, and all candidate interactions are documented in one location for audit purposes.

Yes. NEOED allows you to create multiple evaluation programs and workflows that share core institutional requirements while accommodating school-specific needs. You can build templates for common processes and then customize elements like review criteria, competencies, or approval chains by department. For example, all schools can use the same performance review structure, but the College of Business can have different competencies than the School of Nursing. This approach ensures consistency in process while respecting disciplinary differences.

NEOED helps institutions establish consistent faculty evaluation processes while accommodating different review requirements across schools and departments. Configurable workflows can route evaluations through the appropriate chairs, deans, and administrators while keeping documentation centralized.

NEOED is built for decentralized academic environments. You can grant department chairs and deans permissions to initiate searches, manage evaluations, and update job descriptions within their units while maintaining institutional oversight and approval requirements. The system allows you to set guardrails through required fields and approval workflows while giving academic units autonomy over their specific processes. Provosts maintain visibility across all schools without micromanaging departmental operations.

Implementation typically takes 8-12 weeks per module, requiring approximately one hour per day from your team. Our implementation includes a dedicated project manager, implementation consultant, and uses a train-the-trainer approach so you learn the system as you build it out. We work with your schedule and can adjust timelines to meet specific go-live dates.

Yes. NEOED is vendor agnostic and integrates with most systems including Banner, Colleague, ADP, and other HR/payroll platforms. We use flat file transfers and APIs (including Ellucian's Ethos integration network) to move data bidirectionally, eliminating duplicate data entry. Our technical team will work with you during implementation to map fields and establish the integration.

The system is highly configurable by your team without needing to submit tickets or involve IT. You can modify application templates, job postings, workflows, forms, email notifications, and career page content yourself. The administrative interface is designed to be user-friendly — no coding knowledge required. We train you on these capabilities during implementation.

You receive comprehensive ongoing support including: US-based customer support (6 AM–6 PM Mountain Time), unlimited 30-minute help sessions where you can share your screen with our team, a robust online community with user guides and videos, dedicated account and customer success managers, and separate applicant support (so applicants don't burden your HR team). Support is included in your subscription cost.
