Benefits Orientation for Faculty and Staff

Find a schedule of benefits orientations and information on who should attend.

Benefits orientation is provided on designated Mondays during the month from, 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., to inform eligible faculty and staff about university health and welfare and retirement plans.

New employees or those newly eligible for benefits should attend. You will learn about the university's health insurance programs and retirement plans, and get answers to your questions. Be sure to attend within your Period of Initial Eligibility (PIE), 31 days from the date of hire or transfer to a benefits-eligible position, to enroll in benefits.

Can't attend? View the online video orientation, which allows you to skip to specific benefit areas.
