Thank you to everyone who applied for the Voluntary Retirement Program (VRP).  

Memorial accepted applications from interested, eligible employees from June 1 to July 10.  

In total, 47 employees (representing a mix of administrative and academic employees) have been approved for the program. This represents a 45 per cent uptake of those who were eligible. Planning has occurred within units to accommodate changes resulting from the retirement of faculty members who had been scheduled to teach this fall. 

All employees who have been approved under this program will retire on or before Aug. 31, 2026. 

Memorial is incredibly grateful to these colleagues for their years of service and significant contributions to Memorial. Their work has helped shape our institution and strengthen our learning community.
