A monthly update to enhance your Stanford employee experience

Get a jump start on the new training requirement for non-supervisors

If you are a non-supervisory employee – including academic staff, other teaching titles and contingent staff – or a postdoctoral scholar, a new California law requires you to complete Sexual Harassment Prevention Training every two years. The university is offering the option to complete the training this fall, which will fulfill the 2020 training requirements.

MANAGE & LEAD

Manager tools and templates for effective onboarding

The onboarding process—focused on a new hire's first 90 days—is a critical point in the employee life cycle and one that managers are expected to closely oversee. Now, standardized tools and templates are available for managers to set a foundational experience and support higher levels of engagement, productivity, and retention.
