How To Use The Appreciation Portal

Help us support a culture of appreciation at Cornell!

What To Know

  • The Appreciation Portal is an online app that's integrated with Workday, so that you can send a message of appreciation or celebration to any Cornell employee or group of employees.
  • Supervisors can use the portal to send small tokens of appreciation to employees as points that are redeemable through the Cornell store or Amazon.
