All appointed employees will receive a Notice of Appointment (NOA) for their employment at NAU. Appointed employees include Service Professionals, Faculty, Postdoctoral Scholars, Administrators, Administrative Faculty, and Academic Professionals. The NOA and offer letter together constitute an employee’s full contract.<\/p>\n\n
New Faculty, Administrative Faculty, and Academic Professionals will receive an NOA prior to their employment being finalized. After the employee has signed an offer letter, memorandum of understanding, or other employment document, the employee’s department will submit an ePAR<\/a> to hire the employee. Once the ePAR reaches the payroll office for processing, a Notice of Appointment will be released to the employee. Employees must accept their NOAs before their ePARs can be finalized and before they can begin receiving pay, so it is imperative they accept as soon as they are able.<\/p>\n Service Professionals and Postdoctoral Scholars will receive an NOA after the ePAR has been approved by the payroll office. The employee has 14 days to accept the NOA.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n Notices of appointment for the next fiscal year will be drafted in spring of the prior fiscal year.
