Kent State Joins the On the Move Challenge

In April, Kent State University will participate in the On the Move Challenge, a new 12-week national corporate competition. This competition is like no other in that the points you earn as an individual will get your team (Kent State University) one step closer to designation as one of the Most Active Workplaces in the country!

Each week, employees will have an opportunity to learn more about the benefits of physical activity, assess themselves and their progress, share successes and goals with other participants, boost peers for bonus points and, of course, move!

Kent State will compete with other companies and universities in real time for a chance to be one of the top 100 most active workplaces in the country. Registration details will become available the week of March 14 and will be communicated by the Division of Human Resources.
