PHINS Coordinators!

Good afternoon PHINS Coordinators!

This is Ava & Sam! We hope you are all having an amazing summer so far! In this email we will be sharing below information regarding training, move-in, and further communications!

This past weekend, we sent out an email to PHINS Orientation Leaders with the following information:

Training For PHINS Coordinators

Virtual Training

We highly encourage you to join in order to keep you updated with all the information that the PHINS will receive. PHINS Coordinators could potentially lead a group of students if there is a need for it during NSO.

At this training, we would like to introduce the PHINS Coordinators that attend to the PHINS. This session will be recorded and sent out later. The training will be held virtually on July 28, 2022 at 6pm EST.

In-person Training

The required in-person training will be held on Monday, August 22, 2022. At this training PHINS Coordinators shirts, nametags, and merch will be distributed.

We understand that some events for International Student Orientation (ISO) starts on the 22nd (Monday) and will overlap at this time. We will accommodate for those PHINS Coordinators who need it.
