How do Faculty View/Acknowledge Their Appointment Notice?
This article covers how faculty, teaching associates, graduate students, and instructional student assistants can view, acknowledge, and download/print a copy of their appointment notification. They can also reprint old appointment notifications that are available in CHRS.
1. You will receive an email in your campus employee email account when an appointment has been approved for you.
2. Log in to the campus portal and click on Employee Homepage in the Titan Online widget.
3. Click on CSU TAE Appt Notice on the Employee Self Service homepage.
4. You will see your current appointment notices.
You will only see a total of five appointment notices. If you do not acknowledge an appointment notice, eventually it will drop off this view. You can use the Reprint Old Notice process to view/print/download an appointment notice that you do not see on this screen.
What do you want to do?
1. Click Review Appt Notice.
2. Your appointment notice will open as a PDF in a new window/tab. Use the built-in Adobe Reader options to either print or download the PDF.
If you want to print or download your appointment notice, you should do that BEFORE you acknowledge it because as soon as you acknowledge an appointment notice, it will drop off this screen. Acknowledged appointment notices can still be accessed in the Reprint Old Notice tab.
Depending on your computer and web browser settings, your appointment notice PDF may automatically download to your Downloads folder. If the PDF doesn't automatically open in your web browser, check your Downloads folder.
- Click on the printer button to print your appointment notice PDF.
- Click on the file download button to download your appointment notice PDF to your computer.
3. Close the tab or window with the appointment notice PDF when you are finished. You can click on the previous tab or window to get back to the CSU TAE Appointment Notice screen.
- Click on the x to close the appointment notice PDF tab or window.
- Click on the CSU TAE Appointment Notice tab or window to return to the appointment notice screen.
4. Place a checkmark in the Acknowledge column next to your appointment notice.
5. The appointment notice has now been acknowledged and it has been removed from your main CSU TAE Appointment Notice screen. You're done!
You can still access the appointment notice in the Reprint Old Notice tab.
If you don't see an appointment notice on the CSU TAE Appointment Notice tab, you can use these steps to view, print, or download the appointment notice in Reprint Old Notice.
1. Click Reprint Old Notice.
2. Click on the printer icon in the Reprint column next to the appointment notice that you want to view or download.
3. Your appointment notice will open as a PDF in a new window/tab. Use the built-in Adobe Reader options to either print or download the PDF.
Depending on your computer and web browser settings, your appointment notice PDF may automatically download to your Downloads folder. If the PDF doesn't automatically open in your web browser, check your Downloads folder.
- Click on the printer button to print your appointment notice PDF.
- Click on the file download button to download your appointment notice PDF to your computer.
4. Close the tab or window with the appointment notice PDF when you are finished. You can click on the previous tab or window to get back to the CSU TAE Appointment Notice screen.
- Click on the x to close the appointment notice PDF tab or window.
- Click on the CSU TAE Appointment Notice tab or window to return to the appointment notice screen.

It's not as clear, as in past semesters, what exactly we have to do to indicate our acceptance of the contract (instead of signing it). Do I click the "Acknowledgment" box to the right of the yellow "Review Appt Notice" box, and/or click box to the right of the "Are you employed..." line? (this last one used to specify if we were employed an additional campus, but this line doesn't say that -- implying any campus, including my current one)

Hi Randy! Acknowledging the appointment is akin to signing it. To acknowledge the appointment, click the Acknowledgment box, as you described. You only need to check the other box ( "Are you employed...") if you are employed at another CSU in addition to CSUF or if you anticipate concurrent employment at another CSU during the same term as your faculty appointment.

Hi there,
I clicked in the box to accept the offer, but the x sign appeared and disappeared.
What was going on? I am not sure if my acceptance was acknowledged.
Thank you.

Hi Thi! As mentioned in the red text box at the start of the "Acknowledge an appointment notice" section, the appointment will drop off from your screen after you acknowledge it, so you will not be able to view on the CSU TAE Appointment Notice tab. To view, print, or download an old appointment notice that you have already acknowledged, click on the Reprint Old Notice tab.
If you do not see the acknowledged notice in the Reprint Old Notice tab, you can contact the Helpdesk for assistance at 657-278-7777 or [email protected].
