Induction Training

For groups of people - at your premises or a location of your choice.

Overview

Course duration : to suit client

The manner in which a new employee starts their role within any organisation is vital as this will inevitably impact upon their subsequent behaviors and performance. 

The absence of an Induction Programme will mean that the new starter will simply look to existing staff for guidance, and usually emulate the behaviors and habits that they observe. 

This in itself may not be a problem; however the induction process provides an excellent opportunity for the organisation to set out the standards that it expects of all new employees. 

The role of providing such induction training often falls to individuals within an organisation who are busy in their current role, and finding the time to deliver this on a regular basis can often be a huge challenge. 

A number of organisations recognise the benefit of working with a training provider to assist them with design and/or delivery of this key discipline. We can bring with us our experience in this area, and work closely with you to assist with the design and/or the delivery of engaging and meaningful training which will ensure that the new staff member is clear on what is required of them, and confident in starting their new role. 

Below is an indication of some of the areas covered within a typical induction programme. All organisations are different however, and we would seek to work closely with you to bespoke training according to your individual needs.
