New Employee Orientation Survey

Welcome to University of West Georgia!!!

On behalf of the University of West Georgia (UWG) and the Division of Business and Finance, I would like to extend my welcome to you and hope that your orientation thus far has been enlightening, informative, helpful, and fun!
Your first month of working on a college campus can sometimes be just as intimidating as your first month in taking college classes - trying to find parking, getting to know the location of buildings, and taking training exams can all be very stressful!
The Division of Business & Finance has crafted this orientation program not only to help alleviate those fears but also to help you be successful. And we need you to be successful so that our students can be successful. Suffice it to say without students, we wouldn't be here.
We would like your feedback on your orientation thus far. All responses will be sent to Dan Lewis in the Center for Business Excellence. Dan is responsible for maintaining confidentiality in the orientation process while ensuring that areas for concern can be corrected and that employee orientation continues to improve.
Please take the next few minutes to respond to these questions, and let us know if we can be of service to you.
Best wishes on your continued employment and success.
Jim
James Sutherland
Vice President of Business and Finance
