Workshop Registration Details

The JAGUAR ACADEMY engages new employees beyond the standard first day orientation and helps them connect to South Texas College’s Comprehensive Mission and to become part of the STC Family. The Academy will focus on providing guidance, support and instill confidence in new employees as they adapt to their roles at the College. Participants will complete a service area tour to enlarge their vision of STC’s regional impact as well as connect employees with the many valuable resources available to them. The Academy will help them become familiar with the College culture and enable them to better assist students and colleagues. BENEFITS
New employees will learn about STC's Comprehensive Mission and Philosophy, as well as make connections with departments around the College. The Jaguar Academy will assist new employees in shortening the new hire learning curve, ultimately preparing them to deliver results faster. Participation will ensure new employees feel welcomed and prepared for their position and their role at the College. The participants will meet the STC President, learn about STC Points of Pride, engage in customer service training, learn about campus resources, and take a full-day service area tour.
