Dear APU Staff,

In light of COVID-19 trends in the Anchorage area, previously approved telecommuting arrangements will be extended through August 30th. However, as we plan for the start of the Fall semester we recognize the need to provide essential services to students and campus as a whole. Campus offices will need to function through a mix of distance-delivered services and on-campus staffing, and so some adjustments to telecommuting arrangements may be required. Please work with your supervisor to provide coverage that ensures safe campus operations and quality student services.

We are still planning for employees to return gradually over time, as their personal circumstances and job responsibilities allow. APU is preparing for employees to return to campus with protocols in place for a healthy campus environment. If you anticipate needing to extend your telecommuting beyond August 30th, please contact your supervisor.

Quyana (thank you) for your incredible work on behalf of APU.
