Effective Online Onboarding Resources Part 1

Orientation documents are an excellent resource for new recruits. However, business life requires constant development and constant consideration of certain information. In that case, it would be fair to say that making your orientation resources available to both your new and existing employees will be very effective for the development of your company.

Now let's transfer different orientation channels that are both effective and accessible at any time.

1. Beginner courses
During the busy work schedule, managers do not have time to deal closely with newly recruited employees. For this reason, many companies now manage the necessary trainings through digital channels at the beginning stage. In addition, the forms to be filled by the employees, personnel profiles and important information about the company are published here, providing an effective orientation area.

2. Stories
It is the long-term employees who best reflect the culture and values ​​of an institution. Their success stories are also a resource for beginners. It is possible to convey these stories with videos, podcasts and texts included in educational materials.

3. Cross-platform responsive E-learning modules
A correct e-learning platform chosen for your corporate culture, values ​​and goals will be effective in strengthening your company's talents and thus increasing your corporate success. An effective e-learning platform must be accessible from laptops, phones and tablets.

4. Exams
Exams are valuable in terms of measuring existing knowledge and developing this knowledge as a result of the results. Examinations can be used to measure the quality of new recruits. Developing results in a way that creates success for each department is vital for the success of the company.

5. Surveys
Questionnaires are effective in assessing new employees' interest in the process and their current knowledge. You can measure the effectiveness of your learning system with the surveys you will apply through your e-learning tools, and identify the points that need improvement by viewing the participation rates.

6. Bringing colleagues together
In order to maximize the efficiency of the start-up process of a new employee in your organization, you can offer them areas where they can communicate closely with their colleagues. In this way, both internal communication will be strengthened and the process of adopting internal values ​​of new employees will accelerate. At this point, the important thing is to choose an effective role model who will guide the person who has just started the business and continue his/her job successfully and to develop this cooperation.

7. Checklist
A to-do list will be a successful guide for a new employee. In this way, you can measure how much time employees spend on each item and their competencies.

8. Other learning materials

Bring your in-house training processes and orientation trainings together on a single platform. Thus, your content will always be accessible to all your employees. This method will be effective in increasing productivity, making content available continuously and increasing the success of cross-learning processes for the company.

9. Podcasts

Podcasts are considered one of the most effective digital tools, and the effective use of these audio contents in the orientation processes directly affects the success of the company. You can include these contents that present news and important messages in your e-learning platform.

10. Videos and vodcasts

Two other tools as effective as podcasts are; videos and vodcasts.
