Strategy L: Provide thorough orientation to all new staff and faculty, recognizing that new staff may not be aware of the resources within the Center/Program, University, and surrounding community.

Orient Staff Objective: Hire and retain a diverse and inclusive workforce of staff and faculty. Theme: Personnel and Trainees

Provide thorough orientation to all new staff and faculty, recognizing that new staff may not be aware of the resources within the Center/Program, University, and surrounding community. Provide resources to help all new staff feel welcomed and comfortable. Provide training on topics such as transportation, benefits, travel, communication, teaching culture of working in a professional organization, what to do if there is a conflict of interest and/or a difference of opinion about advocacy or policy, how to access systems such as email, Blackboard, etc. This ensures new staff feel welcomed and more equal to existing staff.
