Introductory Period

(effective 1/1/07)

Staff and Administrative employees must successfully complete an introductory period of three months at the start of their Lesley University employment. The introductory period is a time for you to learn about your job, and become familiar with your new surroundings, and it is a time for the University to assess your skills and abilities. Under certain circumstances, the introductory period may be extended for an additional three months, and/or your employment may be terminated if you cannot meet the requirements of the position for any reason. Paid time off accrues but may not be used during this period except for extreme circumstances.
