Registration Open for On the Move Challenge

Registration is now open for the On the Move Challenge. Kent State University will compete against other employers in real time for a chance to be one of the top 100 most active workplaces in the country. Last year, Kent State placed 17th in the nation, up from 27th the year before. This year we intend to move up the leaderboard and show the country what a healthy and thriving workforce looks like.

As an added bonus for full-time employees participating in the Wellness Your Way Incentive Program, you may earn 60 Tier Two Wellness Your Way Points by achieving at least 65 percent of total available points.
