March 18, 2020 — Campus Update for Faculty and Staff

On March 18, 2020, Acadia released a new online guide for employees who will work from home while the University follows social distancing recommendations in response to COVID-19.

General information for employees is in the Faculty/Staff FAQ, along with a copy of the new guidelines (PDF). Detailed information and technology-related support are accessible on the HUB, listed as Work from Home.

Thank you to our Human Resources and Technology Services teams for implementing this support for our campus community.

Employees are expected to work from home as soon as possible and practical, once approved by their Dean or Executive Director. Some work functions will require employees to be onsite.

Acadia University has established an authoritative source of information, updates, and communications regarding COVID-19 on a website to assist you. Learn more: covid-19-information.acadiau.ca

Sincerely,

Dr. Dale Keefe
Provost and Vice-President, Academic
