AUM's Faculty Orientation experience is designed with two primary goals in mind:

  1. To ensure faculty feel genuinely welcomed to our community.
  2. To provide faculty with essential knowledge, skills, and information they'll need to get started in their AUM experience.


To achieve this, AUM's Orientation consists of three required components: 

1. Canvas Training - All instructors must be AUM Canvas trained (FDI-Canvas), before they can access their courses in Canvas.  We offer a wide range of face-to-face and online training options.  For more info and to register for training, click here


2. Online Orientation Course - Hosted online, this orientation course provides an introduction to the many offices, services, and information that are valuable and essential to AUM instructors.  While this course is self-paced, instructors should try to complete this course prior to the Campus Welcome event.


3. Campus Welcome event - This campus-based meeting features a welcome lunch and information session.  (January 22nd, 12pm - 1pm - Provost's conference room).

$300 Stipend

Upon completion of the first two components, full-time faculty will be eligible to receive a $300 stipend  (applied to their AUM paycheck after their contract begins).  

  • Use this form to register for the Campus Welcome event.
  • Use the link in this form to register for Canvas training
  • You will be automatically enrolled in the Virtual Orientation Course in Canvas - you should receive a welcome email.
