This newsletter contains information on the new applicant tracking system, an opportunity to join the ambassador program, and an update on compensation. 

Benefits Open Enrollment


CC makes significant investments in our benefits offerings to support you as an employee. To get the most value from these investments, we encourage you to review your selections during open enrollment, Wednesday, May 1 to Friday, May 31. Most changes will take effect on July 1. 
During this period, you can make any of the following changes in the eBenefits portal: 
  • Add, delete, or modify any of your benefits 
  • Enroll or disenroll eligible dependents 
  • This year only: You can enroll for supplemental life insurance up to the guaranteed issue amount through The Hartford. This is a one-time chance to waive the requirement for Evidence Of Insurability (EOI).  
  • Update your flexible spending account (FSA) withholding. Note: The FSA is the only benefit that must be renewed each year. 
Other than the FSA withholding, if you would like to keep your current benefits as they are, you do not need to do anything during open enrollment. 
If you have any questions, please contact Gina Lujan at elujan@coloradocollege.edu. 

New Applicant Tracking System – PageUp


Human Resources is thrilled to announce that CC will be adopting a new applicant tracking system over the summer. The new software will improve the talent acquisition process for hiring teams by consolidating search resources into a single platform and will also provide a better application experience for applicants. 
The new platform, PageUp, was unanimously selected by a cross-functional team composed of members from the Dean of the Faculty, Student Employment, ITS, and HR. Implementation work is already underway, and it is anticipated to go live later this summer.

HR Staffing Update


After 10 years of dedicated service at CC, Laurie Mozingo will be retiring on Friday, August 2. Please join us in thanking her for her service to our employees. 
As she is departing, we are shifting some of her responsibilities into new roles. We are in the process of hiring a Director of Employee Relations and Support, who will help us build transparency, equity, and restorative practices into processes that help address employee concerns.  
We will also be hiring a Director of Total Rewards, who will continue the work of enhancing our compensation and benefits practices. 
Finally, we are in the process of hiring the Associate Vice President of Workplace Culture to backfill the position left vacant when Ginger Jurecka-Blake left earlier this year. 

Did you participate in the April 2024 Performance Conversation?


We are interested in your feedback on the new process and have an anonymous survey open through Monday, May 27. Providing information about your experience will help us make data-informed decisions about this process moving forward.  
We will share performance data and respond to your feedback throughout the summer. Keep an eye out for more information related to Feedback Practices.  

Join the Ambassador Program!


During this academic year, Ambassadors have supported over 60 new employees through their onboarding experience. A recent new hire shared feedback about the program stating, “I’ve never worked in a place with a program like the CC Ambassador Program. It’s super helpful and makes connecting with fellow staff members easier!”  
We are now looking to grow our Ambassador Program so we can welcome new employees over the summer months and into next year. If you have ever been curious about what Ambassadors do, or if you have worked at CC for over one year and are interested in becoming an Ambassador, please reach out to Sara San Souci for more information about the program and steps to join.

Compensation


HR is working with divisions to finalize the banding tied to the new compensation structure. Every position is being reviewed to ensure compensation that is internally and externally equitable. We have shared updates on the process at In the Loop, the Work of the College, and the Open Forum sessions. New bands will be communicated to all employees in salary change letters in late June/early July. Please make sure your mailing address is accurate in Banner and email HR@coloradocollege.edu if you need to update it.
