Employee Resource Center
The Employee Resource Center is designed to provide useful tools, forms and information for Palm Beach State College employees.
Congratulations on your new position and welcome to Palm Beach State College!
To ensure you receive and retain all of the information you will need to be successful as an employee with Palm Beach State College, resources and information have been gathered in one place for an easier transition. You will also take part in an on-going year-long New Hire Panther-Boarding Program which includes informational sessions, performance management, training and recognition activities.
New regular part-time and full-time employees are required to attend a Panther-Boarding Session coordinated by the Office of Human Resources. These informational sessions occur on the first working day of each month, at the locations listed below on the Lake Worth campus. The material presented in this session will provide you with an understanding of the various functions of the College and your role within those functions.
Panther Boarding
Panther Boarding takes place on the first business day of each month. Panther Boarding is from 8AM - 4PM with an hour for lunch. During the morning session, information will be presented on the College’s policies and procedures, safety, and equity programs. The afternoon session will include information on the benefits available.
