This website is a part of the University's Institutional Compliance Office which coordinates the editing, review, issuance, and archiving of University administrative policies. While the Institutional Compliance Office is responsible for guiding the development and dissemination of a policy, responsibility for its content resides with the responsible official, typically a University Vice President.
This site offers policies that have been through the official University policy development process (refer to the navigation links in the left border for the process requirements, definitions, etc). The left border also provides multiple tools to locate a policy or a group of related policies.
By establishing specific requirements for all members of the University community, policies connect the university's mission to individual conduct, institutionalize impartial expectations, support compliance with laws and regulation, mitigate institutional risk, and enhance productivity and efficiency in the university's operations.
A goal of the Institutional Compliance Office is to simplify the understanding of the many external laws, regulations and internal policies that a University employee needs to follow to make good decisions. With this goal in mind, please share your thoughts on how we can improve our services. To do so, please contact Charles Jefferis at 656-2662 or at charles.jefferis@uvm.edu
