To introduce new employees to the culture of Missouri Western and set them up for success from their first day, they will attend New Employee Orientation. Orientation will be offered on the 1st and 16th of every month (or the following Monday if the 1st or 16th falls on the weekend) and create a consistent, unified first-day experience across campus.
Orientation focuses on Griffon pride and inspires new employees to value how we work together to build our legacy through the mission and vision of the University.
All new employees across the University will start on the same day and attend a full-day orientation starting with check-in at 8:30 a.m.
Prior to starting their position, new employees will receive information on completing paperwork and what to expect from their first day.
New Employee Orientation will provide employees the opportunity to
- Develop a deeper understanding of how things work at the University (e.g. payroll, parking, dining hall, bookstore, and other valuable resources);
- Learn about employee benefits and retirement offerings;
- Receive confidentiality and campus safety trainings;
- Attend a virtual campus tour.
