New Hire Orientation Checklist

To help you get started, an Orientation Checklist has been created that highlights many of the essential administrative tasks you’ll need to complete upon being hired.

Orientation Checklist

Workday – Contract & Payroll

  • Sign your offer letter using Fanshawe’s Workday system.
  • Complete all onboarding tasks within the Workday system (e.g., tax forms, SIN, photo ID).
  • Workday is where all employees will access details on your employee profile, including pay details.

Employee ID & Parking

  • Collect your Fanshawe employee ID card from the FANCard Office (E2020). You will need your Employee Number and a piece of identification.
  • Arrange for parking, if necessary. Parking cards can be purchased from the Parking Office (D1018).
  • Obtain swipe card access with your employee ID card. Please visit B2015 for support with this task.

NFT Orientation & Communication with Course Lead

  • Attend your Kinlin NFT Orientation. The date and time for this session will be provided by your Program Manager.
  • Connect with your course leader(s) for key details regarding the course(s) you are teaching.

Logging into Systems

  • Log into FanshaweOnline (FOL). FOL is our Learning Management System, which will have your course site ready.
    • Set up your FOL page for my course(s). This will include completing your professor information and communications expectations and updating any key dates with direction from your course leader.
  • Log into WebAdvisor. WebAdvisor is where you will find your class list and class timetable and enter grades.
  • Log into your employee email account. Note you have two email accounts:
