New and veteran staff members are encouraged to familiarize themselves with all policies and procedures. Cumberland University is committed to providing its staff members with clear policies and procedures regarding the University's expectations and opportunities.

Because universities by nature are complex and dynamic, change in organization and in the policies and procedures to which the faculty and staff members are subject is an ongoing process, and Cumberland University reserves the right to make such changes. Although the policies are up-to-date at the time of its publication, as time goes on one should check with the Human Resource Department to verify the currently applicable policies.
