Academic Staff Personnel Policies

The academic staff Unclassified Personnel Policies and Procedures found in UWEX Chapters 8-13 are based on UWS Chapters of the Wisconsin Administrative Code, the rules of the Board of Regents (http://www.legis.state.wi.us/rsb/code/uws/uws.html). These policies address important personnel matters that define an academic staff member's rights and obligations.

The official copies of these policies and guidelines are available in the secretary's office. If you need these policies in a different format due to a disability, contact Kate Wodyn, 608-262-6151, kate.wodyn@uwex.edu.

These documents may be viewed and printed in Adobe Acrobat® Portable Document Format ( - PDF). You will need the free Acrobat Reader to view and print them. Click on a link below to load a file.
