Employee Orientation

The first phase of the New Employee Orientation program is a virtual orientation session. During this initial phase, new employees will complete required new hire paperwork, learn about the Institute’s history, mission, vision, and key strategic priorities, receive Human Resources-related information including payroll, policies, benefits, and parking/commuting options, and learn about norms for communication at the Institute and tips for resource navigation around the Institute. This is a half-day session.

School and Department Orientation: The Institute schools and departments also have department- and job-specific orientations that will take place in the employee’s department. Your manager or supervisor will provide you with more information.

New Faculty Orientation (For Faculty Only): In addition to the Institute’s New Employee Orientation Program, the Office of the Provost conducts a New Faculty Orientation one to two times a year. Information about this orientation will be made available by the Provost’s Office.

The second phase of the New Employee Orientation program is completing online Institute orientation modules and new hire forms on HealthStream, one of the Institute's learning management tools. Many of these trainings are related to compliance and safety at the Institute. New employees will be required to complete some trainings within 1 day at the Institute and other trainings within 30 days. Employees are responsible for scheduling time to complete these required trainings.
