Human Resources

If you’ll be parking a car on campus, you’ll need a parking permit. To obtain a pre-tax advantage on your parking permit, visit the University Police Department’s Parking Services Office and submit a Payroll Authorization Form to purchase a parking permit through payroll deduction.

There is some training required of all new employees and some that is specific to particular positions/functions. Your supervisor will discuss your required training on your first day. Some of the training needs to be taken just once, some is renewed on a given cycle. You may receive email notification from various departments on campus regarding required training.

Most required compliance related training is provided by CSU Systemwide Professional Development and accessed via CSU Learn (SumTotal) These trainings should be completed during work hours. Please feel free to access the "Catalog" tab for other training opportunities.

The New Employee Orientation (NEO) is a day-long event designed to introduce new employees to CSUMB. All staff and management are automatically enrolled in a NEO based on their hire date and expected to attend within their first 2 months of employment. You will receive an invitation to attend from Human Resources via email.

Consider the following training and resources to get you ‘up and running’ as soon as possible.
