NFO 2025 – Find Your Way – Sneak Peek at New Faculty Orientation 2025

Like the name implies, New Faculty Orientation (NFO) is an opportunity for new faculty from across the university to come together for an informative and engaging two-day orientation event. Right now, you can do three things to prepare:

  1. Mark your calendars!
  • 8:00 am to 7:00 pm on Monday, August 18th
  • 8:00 am to 5:00 pm on Tuesday, August 19th

Please plan to attend both days for the entire day.

Stay tuned for more information as we solidify the schedule. We’ll provide updates in future newsletters and on the NFO 2025 Find Your Fit website.

  1. Complete the New Faculty Orientation Information Survey by June 30th to help us plan.
  2. Get excited about meeting your new colleagues and getting started as a member of Pirate Nation!

The NFO agenda is packed with helpful information and resources to help you get started ECU. Topics include:

    • Employee Benefits and Resources
    • Support from ECU Libraries
    • Teaching-related Assistance
    • Infrastructure to Support Research
    • Guidance on Supporting Students at ECU
    • Faculty Policies, Processes, and Resources
    • Building your Support System
    • …and more!

NFO is not just about learning, however. It’s also packed with opportunities to connect with other new faculty and key people who help you chart a course for success on your ECU journey. During NFO, you will meet senior campus leaders, attend an information fair tailored to the needs of faculty, and attend break-out sessions that align with your specific interests.

We are looking forward to seeing you!
