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

A brief description of the program:

Yes. GW's Climate Action Plan laid out a commitment to expand and explore telecommuting options on campus. There are several telecommuting pilots running on campus as well as a cohort of consistent telecommuters.

As part of GW's Ecosystems Enhancement Strategy, GW is working to reduce the university's total carbon footprint. One tactic for doing so is to promote video/teleconferencing options wherever available for regularly scheduled staff meetings.
