HR Programs and Staff Development

Our learning and development programs are designed to empower staff at all levels with the skills, knowledge, and mindset needed to thrive in a dynamic work environment.

AUC encourages applications from individuals with disabilities, demonstrating deep commitment to diversity, inclusion and accessibility in the workplace.

To assure all AUC employees are engaged, stretched and challenged to learn and grow purposefully; making a difference while taking ownership of their professional journey, AUC conducts an annual performance management system for all levels across the University.

AUC is building an organization that supports every person in their own professional journey. The AUC competencies framework is an internal enterprise, developed to enable and support employee's growth aspirations.

The purpose of this award is to recognize and celebrate the outstanding contributions of our staff to the University.

Given the continuing efforts of the Office of Human Resources to focus on staff talent development and career progression, we give our staff members the opportunity for a one-week exchange at one of Europe’s associated universities.

It is an annual award given to four staff members as a recognition for their lifelong service to AUC. Winners receive the award from the University for two Pilgrimage and two Jerusalem visits. Members are chosen according to the terms and conditions applied.

The onboarding program will begin from the moment you are offered a job to work with us and will continue along the way. The Office of Human Resources is your strategic partner to help you seamlessly enter your new role, and will also be on your side in your growth and development journey.
