Engaging the UND Community

Building Connections with Our Community

Fostering connections at UND and beyond! We encourage supervisors and leaders to connect with local community newsletters and alerts as an easy way to stay informed about what’s happening around Grand Forks and the greater community. This not only helps with recruiting new employees to the area but also enhances team building and retention.

Why it matters:

  1. Recruiting: Being in the know about local events and news helps you discuss relocation and community life with prospective candidates, making them feel more confident in their decision.
  2. Team Building: Local events offer great opportunities for team bonding outside of work, helping to strengthen relationships and create a positive workplace culture.
  3. Employee Retention: When new hires feel connected to the community, they’re more likely to feel at home and stay long-term.

Get Started:

We recommend signing up for a few local newsletters and alerts to stay updated on the latest. This small step can make a big difference in supporting your team and fostering a sense of belonging.

Let’s continue building a strong, connected community!
