Flexible Workplace Planning and Resources

November 2021

Flexible Workplace Series

During  June 2021, we met with managers three times to provide the information needed in order to successfully prepare for the campus shift back to in-person activity. The Managers' Forums on June 1, 15, and 29, 2021 were recorded and are included on this page dedicated to helping you successfully navigate this change. 

This is a special three-part training series. Toolkits, guides, and additional resources will be released in tandem with each Managers' Forum. There are three supplemental e-learnings to help drive your success with the campus default back to predominantly in-person operations. We ask that you stick with us on this learning journey; we’re in this together!
