Want a better understanding of Creighton's history, culture and Jesuit values? Interested in working with your peers to engage in reflection and explore Ignatian leadership and spirituality?

Faculty and staff are invited to participate in the 2024-2025 Newcomers Orientations Valuing Ignatian and Creighton Engagement (NOVICE) program, beginning in September. This mission-formation opportunity series brings together small groups throughout the year and is designed for faculty, staff and administrators in their first three years at Creighton (although any faculty and staff looking for a deeper introduction to the University’s Jesuit, Catholic educational mission is welcome to join). 

Register for the small group of your choice.

The program takes place over seven months, September to November and January to April. Each month, members will review online resources and informational videos centered on the month's theme. Then, they meet in small groups — either online, in-person or hybrid — for more engaging discussions. There are multiple small-group options to sign up for depending on the time and date that works best for your schedule. See the options below.

Registration ends on Friday, Aug. 30. For additional information or questions, please contact NOVICE@creighton.edu or Jane Waters-Parks in the Office of Mission and Ministry.
