Take Your Child to Work Day Partnership Opportunities
UNLV will celebrate Take Your Child to Work Day on Thursday, April 28! The event invites employees to bring their children to campus to participate in a variety of activities showcasing UNLV’s diverse offerings. For some children, this is their first time on a college campus, making it a great opportunity to inspire a future generation of Rebels.
The Family Advocacy Committee is seeking departments and organizations that would like to participate in the event by hosting an activity, sponsoring a table, or donating swag items.

Making Workday Better for NSHE
|
|
When Workday launched in 2017, UNLV migrated all financial and human resource functions from separate systems into a single tool, used by nine Nevada System of Higher Education (NSHE) institutions. Everyone from department administrators to part-time instructors had to learn a new system to do their jobs. It was a difficult, but important, change for members of our campus community.
Implementing Workday made sense. Centralizing essential administrative functions into a cloud-based application makes transactions, purchases, and hires more efficient. The reporting tools shed light on departmental resources and help leadership make important decisions. That being said, a cloud application for a system as big as the NSHE comes with its fair share of challenges.
