Steps to Complete Onboarding
There are two main parts to onboarding for the UCC Crew Member Positions on the Ashley National Forest.
The steps you will need to complete are highlighted in yellow. You may refer to this Onboarding Process Chart to track your progress. Please email greta.schen@usu.edu with any questions.
Part 1 - Getting Started
This stage gathers the information to begin your onboarding process. Our questionnaire also collects emergency contacts and information about any medical conditions to help ensure your safety.
- Before we can start onboarding, the Forest Service will need to let the UCC know a member has been selected for the position.
- The UCC will then send the selected crew member and Forest Service Program Manager a Position Agreement Letter set via BOX sign. This is both the official offer and acceptance document.
- Upon completion of the above, the UCC will then send you an email for onboarding. Onboarding Questionnaire https://redcap.link/UCC_onboarding2024
