Drake University Human Resources desires to provide opportunities for you to learn about your benefits and talk with the benefit providers. There are three upcoming opportunities for you to do so.

Benefits & Wellness Fair.  Friday, November 1 from 9-11:30 a.m. in Levitt Hall, Old Main. Interact with our benefit providers in a casual environment and fill out a bingo card for a chance to win prizes!

Virtual Benefits Overview Session. Tuesday, November 5 from 1:30-3 p.m.  Please send an email to drakehr@drake.edu to register and receive the online link.

In-Person Benefits Overview Session. Friday, November 15 from 10-11:30 a.m. in CR 313, Olmsted Center.

During both the virtual and in-person overview sessions, Drake HR and some of our key consultants and providers will share information about the benefits that will be effective January 1, 2025.  Both are great opportunities to learn and ask questions.

As we progress through Open Enrollment, please refer to the Open Enrollment Page, as it will serve as a repository of benefit communications that will be distributed during the month of November.

Remember, the 2025 Benefit Enrollment period will be from November 1 through December 2, 2024.  This is your opportunity to adjust benefits for the 2025 calendar year.  Questions may be directed to drakehr@drake.edu.
