Training Prior to Start Date Policy

Staff members must not be required to complete training or otherwise work prior to their start date with the University. In the event that a staff member needs to complete training in advance of their scheduled start date to enable them to be effective on their first day, then the start date should be moved forward as appropriate.

Faculty members may be required to initiate and/or complete compliance training as required by funding and/or regulatory bodies prior to their arrival with the University.
