TABLE 5.

Final Academic Career Readiness Assessment (ACRA), including the 14 qualifications that were selected as required by at least 50% of institutions in at least one group of institutions (R, RT, T)

^a“Qualification” refers to the rubric evaluation criterion, describing each of the qualifications identified in the qualitative study. Four of the five levels of achievement are represented here (level 0 describes the absence of selection for each qualification). Faculty responses to the online survey using the Final ACRA rubric are represented under each qualification.

^b“Required” refers to the percentage of faculty from each institutional group who selected the qualification as a significant contributor to hiring decisions.

^cNumbers in parentheses refer to footnotes in Supplemental Table S9. The full ACRA rubric with accompanying descriptive footnotes can be downloaded from career.ucsf.edu/ACRA.

^dCategories of institutions correspond to the “basic” classification in the 2016 Carnegie Classification of Higher Education Institutions (see Supplemental Table S5; Indiana University Center for Postsecondary Research, n.d.): T (n = 3); RT (n = 11); R: (n = 3). Bold font is used when at least 50% of faculty members in that institutional category selected the qualification. Bars on the left-hand side indicate required qualifications for each group of institution (T: black line, RT: dark gray line, R: light gray line)

^eMinimal hiring levels: Percentages in gray boxes represent the proportion of faculty who selected the rubric level as the minimum level required for a candidate to obtain a position at their institution.
