As you prepare to transfer to another NSHE Institution, there are a number of items that you need to address to ensure a smooth transition. Below are tips on how to achieve this:

Notify Your Supervisor

Talk to your supervisor about your intent to transfer to another NSHE Institution.

  • Once your transfer date has been set, notify your supervisor what your last day working  with your current department will be. 
  • If Classified, complete a  and indicate that you are transferring from one NSHE institution to another.  Submit to your supervisor for approval.
  • If Administrative, complete a resignation/transfer letter and submit to your supervisor for approval.
  • Once your supervisor has signed the form, it needs to be uploaded  into Workday under Worker Documents
  • Go to View Profile on Workday
  • Click ‘Actions’ and select Worker History
  • Select Maintain Worker Documents
  • Click Add
  • Drop completed form into ‘Drop files here’
  • Select appropriate document category and enter comment if applicable
  • Click Done

Notify Human Resources (HR)

Email offboarding@unlv.edu to notify HR that you are planning on transferring and to schedule an offboarding appointment. The email needs to include the following information:

  • Your full name
  • Current department and contact number
  • Your last day with current department
  • Name of the UNLV department you are transferring to
  • Start date of new position

Discuss Your Time Off

We recommend that you meet with your department absence partner to ensure that all of your time off requests are correct in Workday. Confirm with your receiving department that your remaining balance will transfer.

Return Department Property

  • Return department property, including office keys, access cards, or department credit cards.

Settle Any Outstanding Debt Owed to the University

  • Debts can include but are not limited to library fines and parking citations.

Update Workday

  • Complete any outstanding Inbox items
  • Update your contact information, including your email address. Your UNLV email will end on your last day of employment.

Please note a break in service would result in a separation and rehire, rather than a transfer.
