Option 2 - Online Orientation (As of 10/1/2009, this option is unavailable. We hope to have it restored soon.)

To participate in online orientation, faculty and monthly paid employees may register by clicking the link above. Please read all instructions and information before registering. A completed registration form is required before access will be granted for online orientation. The employee is responsible for all paperwork which must be printed, filled out completely, then mailed or hand-delivered to the processing departments or an intra-departmental representative handling such paperwork. The employee is also responsible for obtaining a ID photo from the UAB Physical Security Department.

Option 3 - Blended

Employees selecting this option should follow the instructions for registering for Online Orientation. Once all of the non-benefits portions of Online Orientation have been completed, contact Mary Floyd to schedule a date for instructor-led benefits orientation. The benefits section of orientation is held on Mondays (except for official holidays) in room 419A of the Medical Towers Building at 10:30 a.m
