Supervisors encouraged to use new employee orientation for all new hires
University-wide orientation for new employees was implemented by the Office of the Vice President for Human Resources in 2012. Human Resources encourages supervisors to use the available orientation for all new hires. The goal of this program is to support new staff members in assimilating quickly and successfully into the Purdue culture and to offer a foundation of knowledge regarding mission, organizational structure and functions.
New employee orientation is offered weekly on Mondays. Supervisors should register new employees for orientation at the time an open position is filled.
The success of this program depends on supervisors registering employees to take part. Participation is highly encouraged, and feedback is welcome.
To register for new employee orientation or new supervisor training, go to https://purdue.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_8ox3YhIEtwsCIN7.
Additional tools, including onboarding assistance, an agenda for orientation, parking information and upcoming dates and locations, are available online.
