At
New Employee Orientation, you'll learn about Yale
and meet your fellow new employees.
The
morning session covers Yale's history, its organizational
structure, and current Yale initiatives that will
affect each person's work life. You'll be given
a continental breakfast, a bus tour of Yale and
Greater New Haven, and a brief walking tour of the
central campus (weather permitting). The afternoon
session begins with lunch at a local New Haven restaurant,
followed by the opportunity to sign up for Yale's
great health and retirement benefits.
Orientation
is currently held on Mondays from 8:30 am to 3:30 pm
at 155 Whitney Avenue in Training Room 110 (directions below). Free
parking is available in the Pierson/Sage garage
at 350 Edwards St. (see below for more information).
Dress is business casual, and breakfast and lunch are
provided. For a complete agenda of the day, click

There
are just a few other things you need to know to
plan your day:
- Bring both
your family members' and your social security numbers and birth dates so that you can sign up for your benefits.
- You
may want to check-in with your supervisor about
what to do after orientation. Your supervisor
has been notified, by copy of your offer letter,
that you are attending the orientation program.
S/he has received a Supervisor's Guide designed
to help with your welcome to the University.
- If
you miss your orientation for any reason, talk
with your supervisor immediately and then call
the Learning Center at 203.432.5660 to arrange
a new orientation date. Eligibility to some
employment benefits is time-sensitive, so it
is important not to delay.
