Profile EAP in collaboration with FLC Human Resources is offering a new series of Faculty and Staff Support Sessions for the 2023-2024 academic year. Facilitated by Profile EAP staff, these one-hour support sessions are designed to give you a safe space to talk about work/life balance. These sessions will address different topics including: psychological safety in the workplace, boundary setting (when and how to say “no”), change management, basic principles of caring for yourself, incivility in the workplace, trauma informed practices, and other topics that you want to talk about, too!

Discover the benefits of mindfulness, self-compassion, and meditation with Anne Jones, LCSW from the FLC Counseling Center. Mindfulness is paying attention on purpose, consciously in the present moment, with curiosity and non-judgment. Self-compassion allows us to notice our suffering and to bring care and warmth to it. Meditation is the training ground. We will learn about Mountain Meditation Practice during this 1-hour workshop.

The two-day New Employee Campus Orientation is Thursday, January 11 from 8:30 a.m. - 2 p.m. and Friday, January 12 from 8:30 a.m. to noon. Lunch is provided on Day 1 and a light breakfast is provided on Day 2 of the orientation program. Registration is open! Please RSVP to the day/s you are able to attend below. Each day requires a separate registration for the catering order.
The orientation program was developed by the HR team as a part of our onboarding process. We recognize that there is so much to learn on a new job, not only about the work, but also about our culture and organizational procedures. We are committed to help new employees succeed in their new roles and desire to support them as much as possible.
The purpose of this orientation is to build community among new employees, to learn more about Fort Lewis College, and to learn from various departments about key essentials.
Orientation presentations include:
If you are unable to attend this month, you are welcome to participate in a future orientation date. Orientation is typically held in January, May, August, and October. We recognize that there may be employees hired in the past year or two who would benefit from this orientation, so as space allows, we invite anyone who would like to participate to register via the buttons below.
We greatly appreciate and encourage faculty and supervisors to support and prioritize this orientation for new employees. According to Human Resources Management Institute, formal onboarding increases the chance of keeping a new employee for at least 3 years by 69%. Feedback we received from previous participants conveyed that New Employee Orientation was "very much time well spent" and what they learned was "definitely helpful and immediately applicable."
