Inductions
With almost 20,000 students, 8,500 University staff, 3,000 College employees, and 180,000 alumni, people are what make Oxford an internationally-renowned university. Working at Oxford may be both an inspiring and daunting prospect.
The following three inductions aim to provide new AAD staff arriving at the University, current staff members of the AAD who feel they would benefit from attending, and colleagues in colleges and division/departments/faculties who work in partnership with our Division, an introduction to the work and services of the Academic Administration Division. Staff may attend as many of the inductions as they wish.
- Induction 1: The work of the AAD and its sections
- Induction 2: Introduction to college and department administrative life
- How to book a place
