UNH - myElements: Faculty Activity Reporting (FAR) - Reviewer - Export FAR including Attachments

Task: FAR reviewers (Department or College level reviewers) can complete the review process 100% online, but may prefer to have a paper package created for offline review or archival in department files. This article highlights how a reviewer in myElements can export the FAR including downloading report attachments.

In order to complete these steps you must be setup as a reviewer within myElements. All department chairs, Associate Deans, and Deans are setup as reviewers and may approve additional administrative staff be given this same access by submitting an account request for myElements assessment reviewer access.
