Securing a CCLCM Appointment

Applying for a faculty appointment at CCLCM involves determining which rank is appropriate for you. You will then need to declare a "primary area of excellence:" clinical service, including clinical research; teaching; or research. Rank should be chosen based on reputation and contributions to CCLCM, teaching, research and professional service. Need help selecting the most appropriate rank? Use our Comparison Tool.


Cleveland Clinic staff based at an academic teaching center with an interest in research, teaching and professional service usually choose from the regular track (full-time) ranks:

  • Instructor
  • Assistant Professor
  • Associate Professor
  • Professor
Those devoted to clinical service will choose from the clinical or adjunct track (part-time) ranks:
  • Clinical / Adjunct Assistant Professor
  • Clinical /Adjunct Associate Professor
  • Clinical / Adjunct Professor

Transfers. Those moving from a CWRU-affiliated hospital are required to transfer their appointment following these transfer instructions.



All staff members must submit an online application for a non-tenure CCLCM faculty appointment. This is so CCLCM can maintain its Liaison Committee on Medical Education accreditation. We appreciate your time and service to CCLCM!


New Appointment Information

If you are applying for the first time or moving from one track to another (clinical to regular track or vice versa), you need to apply for a new appointment. Refer to the Steps to Apply for Appointment & Promotion below for details.


Promotion Information

If you want to promote within your current track (clinical/adjunct or regular), you need to apply for a promotion.
