Update – Human Resources has extended the age range of GRCC’s upcoming ‘Take Your Child To Work Day’ event to include children ages 7, 8, and 9 years old.
To accommodate this change, the registration deadline has been extended to Wednesday, May 8.
Grand Rapids Community College supports the United Way through many different activities. As a College, we “donate” hours of support through the Loaned Executive Program and through participation on various agency boards. As individuals, we financially support agencies through our payroll deduction giving. The 2018 Leadership Institute cohort has chosen to extend its support and provide an opportunity for College employees to participate in a volunteer event called Operation United.
When?
Volunteer teams will work on-site at the home of a veteran or current service member within Kent County. Opportunities available on Friday, May 17, 2019, from 9 a.m.-1 p.m.
What takes place?
GRCC employees volunteer to “work” a half day shift (4 hours) on this community service activity.
How do I get involved?
College-wide, we will provide opportunities for the first 50 full-time employees to register for this half-day event.
Do I need my supervisor’s approval?
Yes, employees who would like to volunteer must ask their supervisor for approval. To obtain approval, you are required to complete a Leave of Absence form which can be found on the Human Resources page.
Can I earn Professional Development for volunteering?
Yes, employees who would like to receive up to four hours of professional development credit for this community service simply need to request this in the “Tracking Professional Development Hours for Staff” section of the Leave of Absence Application, and indicate they type of leave being “Conference.”
Pay and Benefits?
Yes, you will work at your regular GRCC job for a half day and work at the United Way activity for a half day (and be paid your regular daily hours).The additional “benefits” you receive are knowing how much you can make a difference in our community and through the United Way organization!
How do I volunteer?
Review information about the service activity, and register online by the May 3, 2019, deadline.
Thanks for caring!
At times it may be helpful to allow others to read or send emails on your behalf. In GroupWise this was known as Proxy access. Gmail allows you to grant someone access to do this by adding a Delegate User.
Allow your team or other members on campus to view your schedule and edit events by sharing your Google Calendar.
If you share your calendar with an individual, they will see your calendar in their “Other Calendars” list. When sharing your calendar with an email group, they will see it in their “Other Calendars” list after they click on the link in the email invitation from Google Calendar.
It was a perfect warm up for the celebration of our graduates on Friday to spend the lunch hour celebrating our employees’ wonderful accomplishments!
Special thanks to everyone whose hard work & dedication made this incredible event possible:
Congratulations again to our honorees and thank you to those who came out to celebrate with us!
Congratulations to the Van & Marinus Swets 2019 Travel Award Winners! The Foundation was able to award 9 travel award to employees this year.
The winning essays were interesting and creative, just as Marinus would have liked.
Congratulations to:
Thank you to all who submitted essays. We hope you all enjoy your vacations you have planned. We look forward to hearing from the winners and seeing pictures from their travels.
Safe travels! We hope to see even more entries next year.
If you have personal contact groups in GroupWise that you’d like to transfer to Gmail, you can do so by exporting as a vCard and then import to Google Contacts.
Google Contacts is currently available in the live environment, so If you’d like to import your contacts ahead of the go-live date, feel free to do so at your convenience.
You can find the instructions to do so by viewing our Knowledge Base article at https://supportdesk.grcc.edu/TDClient/KB/ArticleDet?ID=1035&SIDs=38 or by following the steps below.
Importing the vCard to Google Contacts:
Keep in mind:
Google will display the group you imported, with an option to find and merge any duplicates. It is recommended to do so. You may need to manually clean up your group from this point, as it typically will import a blank contact with the group’s name, which can be deleted.
You will also want to rename the label (Google uses Labels as opposed to folders) by clicking the ‘Edit’ icon next to the new label, typically titled “Imported on [Date]”
For additional assistance, reach out to our Google Guides or email GoogleGuides@grcc.edu.
It is now easier to access your email and calendar on mobile with your staff Gmail account! You can add your email address to the mail app your device has, or download the Gmail app on Android or iOS (iPhone).
If you have a personal Gmail account or have used Gmail before, accessing your GRCC Google Account will be the same process.
Add your staff Gmail account on your mobile device using its mail application:
For specific information for your device, see Google Support’s articles for signing in on Android and iOS (iPhone).
It is important to keep in mind that since your email is a college account, your device will be subject to a few mobile device management permissions.
If you have any questions about the transition to Gmail, please contact our Google Guides at googleguides@grcc.edu.

No need to worry, the Post-It Board is coming with us in the transition to Google!
Instead of being located in your GroupWise Cabinet, the Post-It board has been created as a Community in Google Plus.
Post-It Board is an important place for sharing items and messages with the campus community, and we want to make sure that all faculty and staff members can find the Post-It Board group.
Here’s how to find it in the live environment:
