Transferring within FIU

An employee transferring to another department should coordinate the effective date of the transfer with the assigned recruiter and submit a resignation letter. When possible, employees transferring should provide a minimum of two weeks notice.

All employees transferring to a different department should also complete the Separation from Employment/Transfer Clearance Form to return appropriate items that belong to the department from which the employee is departing. The form is completed online and printed, signed by the supervisor, and submitted to ELR at elr@fiu.edu for processing.

Supervisors must work with their departmental technical support to update membership to any groups utilized to manage internal share drives. In the event the department does not have internal technical support, a request can be submitted via an online request directly with the Division of Information Technology.

Upon receipt of transfer/separation documents, ELR will send an email to the employee requesting they complete an Exit Review Questionnaire and Exit Interview. The employee will be directed to schedule an appointment with a representative from ELR on or before his/her effective separation date. An employee transferring from a non-exempt position to an exempt position who has accrued compensatory leave time will be paid by the departing department in which the employee earned the leave.
