e-SEARCH Info and Training
e-SEARCH is the University's system for administration of the search for administrative and academic faculty. All e-SEARCH training sessions are arranged through the Human Resource department's training and workshop calendar system. Go here to view the calendar and register for a session. If you are the chair of a search committee, start the search process by reviewing this Powerpoint, which details the search process from start to finish. However, reviewing that presentation does not preclude participating in actual training sessions.
e-SEARCH forms and documents are located here.
