[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.23.1″ text_font_size=”20px” text_line_height=”1.8em” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

HR leaders are focusing on building strong employee experiences that support retention. CUPA-HR\u2019s 2025 Employee Retention Survey captures both staff and faculty perspectives, offering critical insights into why employees stay or leave their institutions. In this session, we\u2019ll highlight key national trends related to job demands, benefits, flexibility, workplace culture and supervisory challenges. Then, two leaders that administered the survey institution-wide will share their reactions to their data and how they translated insights into action. You\u2019ll leave with a deeper understanding of national patterns, real-world examples of how institutions are addressing retention, and actionable strategies you can bring back to your own campus.<\/span><\/p>\n
