You will learn more about the university's mission, your role in fulfilling it, and begin creating your personal professional development plan.
Upcoming NFO EventsHere are some of the comments from previous attendees:
"I would tell another new hire if they attended this orientation they would walk away with a full heart and a pat on the back for landing a job that has this much support, opportunity, and resources available all for us! "
"It is a very informative experience that will make your transition to your new position run more smoothly, and help you maximize what the university has to offer you! Plus, FREE stuff!"
"UNL is an iceberg. You are likely just seeing the tip of what the University has to offer the staff, and New Employee Orientation will allow you to have a better understanding of what's under the surface!"
"It helps answer most of the questions I had as a new hire. If this isn't required training within your first week, I think it should!"
"There are so many different parts to our employment at UNL that this is a huge resource for us, we would not know about them if we didn't attend."
"There is a wealth of information regarding being a part of the UNL Husker Community and University of Nebraska entity. The support offered not only for students, but staff and faculty to ensure success is second to none."
