Dear Faculty Affairs Officers:

Each year, we set aside dates to extend a warm Stanford welcome to your new faculty members and provide an overview of Stanford Benefits health, life and retirement savings plans.

The presentations are hosted by senior members of the University HR Service Team at Redwood Hall. We also offer online webinars (via BlueJeans) to provide your faculty more flexibility to attend the meeting from any location. Regardless of which session your faculty chooses, the content is the same and they will have an opportunity to ask questions.

This year’s schedule is listed below and on the Cardinal at Work website.

·  To view the Events Calendar visit cardinalatwork.stanford.edu/calendar

·  Select Faculty from the “Filter by Role” drop-down

·  Click Go (then search New Faculty Benefits Orientation in the appropriate month)

To attend an in-person presentation, please call Keith Chrestman at (650) 736-4102 or e-mail to reserve a space. The webinar sessions do not require a reservation. Simply follow the login instructions provided.

Keep in mind, the New Faculty Benefits Orientation is designed specifically for faculty. Other academic staff, including lecturers should attend the Welcome Center Orientation (welcomecenter.stanford.edu/) held on Mondays. For assistance with enrolling academic staff in the Welcome Center Orientation, please send an email to: .

We want to thank you in advance for scheduling your new faculty members in the New Faculty Benefits Orientation. We look forward to meeting them.

Sincerely,

Agnes Miller

Senior Benefits Analyst, University HR Service Team
