Digital Welcome to Aarhus University

Are you a new employee at AU? Then you'll find a lot of relevant information, a good overview of the organization, and tools for your daily work life in the Digital Welcome.


What is the Digital Welcome?

The Digital Welcome consists of a welcome from Rector Brian Bech Nielsen, as well as four modules:

1. About AU
2. AU as an organisation
3. Working at AU
4. Practical information

It takes approximately 30-45 minutes to go through the welcome from start to finish.

First, watch the three videos, and the rest will unlock

Initially, you should watch three videos related to rector’s welcome, module 1 and module 2. The rest of the content will be unlocked after you've watched the videos, and then you can delve into the various topics—either in the suggested order or in any order you prefer. It's entirely up to you.

The system automatically remembers where you left off, so after watching the three short videos, you can log back into the welcome at any time and use it as a reference.
