New Faculty Orientation and Employee Resources
To accommodate new faculty's schedules, this year new faculty orientation will be a 2-hour virtual event held on three separate dates. In addition to learning about important university resources, new faculty will have the opportunity to meet with representatives of the American Association of University Professors (AAUP), the union representing UConn faculty.
You faculty should have received an invitation and survey to fill out to select a new Faculty Orientation (NFO) time that works with your schedule. Please reach out to Dr. Gwen Tarbox, the Director of CETL, if you need to sign up.
NFO is a separate offering from the New Employee Orientation asynchronous modules provided for you by Human Resources. In the New Employee Orientation modules, you will be provided with information about university administrative practices and about benefits enrollment. As a reminder, all new employees must make their retirement plan selection on or before August 23, 2025. You will be contacted separately by Human Resources with detailed instructions, but you can always reach out to them directly at hr@uconn.edu or at 860-486-3034. Please visit the New Employee Page on the Human Resources website.
