New Employee Orientation -- Organizational Effectiveness -- Human Resources -- University of Denver

We hope that you find your work experience here to be challenging, satisfying, and professionally fulfilling. Every new employee orientates himself or herself to a new environment differently.

Orientation
All employees are required to attend BOTH Arriving at DU:New Hires and Thriving at DU:New Employee Orientation.

It is critical that, when possible, employees are scheduled to start work on Mondays.
