Does the institution offer a telecommute program for employees?:
Yes

A brief description of the program:

The university recognizes the growing demands on staff while at work and the increasing challenge of finding new and better ways of serving students, other customers and meeting the university goals. American University supports flex work arrangements to foster a highly desirable and productive work environment that is responsive to these demands and challenge. The University expects that flexible work arrangements will increase retention and recruitment of highly qualified staff, maintain staff productivity, and promote employee engagement.

While not all positions will be amenable to flex work arrangements, consideration of flexible work schedules are be reviewed on a case-by-case basis taking into account the departmental needs and the employee’s ability to maintain a high level of service.
