Supervisor Orientation Toolkit

Congratulations on the hire of your new employee. As a supervisor, you play an important role in guiding new employees through a successful career at NSU. In conjunction with the New Employee Orientation, this toolkit will help you prepare, welcome, and engage your new employees.

Orientation begins upon the applicant’s acceptance of his or her new role and ideally continues through the first year of employment. It enables you to familiarize new employees with the policies, processes, culture, expectations, and day-to-day responsibilities of your department.

Research shows that providing a well-organized orientation experience greatly increases employee satisfaction, productivity, and retention. The tips, templates, and resources in this toolkit will support your orientation efforts and shorten the time until your new employees are successful contributors to your department and NSU.
