Introduction
Launched in April 2021, the Promotion activity hub within Meridian (the Medical School's faculty lifecycle management suite) is a software tool designed to assist Departments in gathering the necessary documents and references for the promotion of faculty members.
This new application replaces MARTA, the previous promotion software, for all promotion candidates slated for September 2022, onward. (Existing faculty being promoted for Sept 2021 will continue to be processed in MARTA.)

For questions about access or the business requirements for a Promotion, please submit a customer support request to the Office of Faculty Affairs.
To report a technical issue with the software, please contact the HITS Service Desk.
