Getting Started - Your First Day

On your first day of work you will check in with Human Resources for New Employee Orientation.  (We will coordinate this day with you).

New Employee Orientation 

The goal of new employee orientation is to engage you, our new employees, into the United States Naval Academy (USNA) culture, giving you a greater sense of connection to the Institution, providing pertinent information you need without overloading you as you learn about your job duties, and expose you to the Naval Academy culture throughout the process.  

• New Employee Orientation will help you to:
  • Gain critical insights into USNA’s history, organizational culture, values, and goals
  • Learn about Academy resources (perks, benefits, tools etc)
  • Identify key policies, procedures, and systems
  • Review the health care, life insurance, retirement plans, and other available benefits

• New Employee Orientation is conducted when an employee enters on duty.

The Human Resources Office is located in Halligan Hall (just outside of gate 8, near the baseball field).
