Fall 2024 Orientation

Check out the offerings for fall 2024 club orientation below!

Please note failure to complete the below requirements may result in your club being put on probation. You may find more information about what probation entails here.

Online Checklists

All club leaders are required to complete the online club orientation checklists – except for the in-person session requirement, since sessions are being offered through 10/13 – on Bates Engage by Sunday, September 22.

There are separate checklists for new club leaders and returning club leaders.

• If you have never completed club orientation, you may access the new club leader checklist here.
• If you are a returning club leader who has completed club orientation in the past, you may access the returning leader checklist here. Please note that returning leaders also have access to the new leader checklist for reference purposes, but are not required to complete it.

You may also find these checklists by logging into Bates Engage on a web browser. Then on the left sidebar, select “My Activity,” and then “My Checklists.”

Completion of the checklist will take approximately 3 hours total for new leaders, and 1 hour total for returning leaders. We recommend you pace yourself, and do approximately one section per day.

In-Person Sessions

All new club leaders are required to attend at least three of the below in-person sessions, and all returning club leaders are required to attend at least two. We recommend you strategize with your fellow club leaders to ensure your club is represented at all of the sessions.
