Promotions and Transfers

Supervisors wishing to request a promotion for an employee may do so during the performance appraisal process. Promotions are based on evidence of significant increases in job responsibilities. Requests for promotions are submitted to the appropriate Division Head along with the Promotion Request Form. Promotions will only be considered during the designated period of time or as a result of a new or vacant position being posted.  Generally, a request for a promotion or transfer will not be considered until at least one (1) year of service is completed in any given position.

All vacant and newly created positions will be posted on the Office of Human Resources web page. Employees wishing to apply for a posted position must submit a resume, cover letter, and application via the PeopleAdmin system. Only employees who have worked at WPI for a minimum of one year are eligible to transfer to another position.
