New Employee Welcome

New employee orientation is required of all new employees and must be completed within 30 days of your start date. Due to COVID-19 we are suspending our in-person orientation and directing all new employees to compete the online version.

If you are a new benefit-eligible employee, please use the link below to register for our New Employee Welcome and we will email you all the information you need about your benefits, retirement, payroll, and rights and responsibilities as a NAU employee.  After you register for the session, we will schedule a Zoom call with you to help answer any questions you may have.

After you log into LOUIE, search for the course name “New Employee Welcome” and register for the soonest date available.
