Why use e-learning in adaptation

The traditional approach to onboarding involves conducting introductory trainings, distributing informational materials, and conducting an exam after the probationary period. To relieve managers and personnel officers, based on the available materials, you can create an electronic course:

the course is available at any time from anywhere in the world - this is especially convenient for companies that temporarily or permanently work remotely;

it is more profitable than inviting a trainer, especially if we are talking about a small or medium-sized enterprise that is not engaged in mass hiring;

it is possible to choose a non-standard format - from video and infographics to chatbots or interactive quests using AR / VR.

However, if the company has never developed e-learning courses, you should not start with an onboarding one.

Regardless of what level of employees you are developing a course for, there are several important factors to consider.

1. Break the program into onboarding and professional training

First, explain how the office works, who to contact if you forgot your password or spilled coffee on the keyboard, explain where you can go for lunch and where to store personal items. Only then talk about corporate values ​​and teach how to work in Jira.

How e-learning helps in staff adaptation

The effectiveness of all his subsequent work depends on how successfully the employee undergoes adaptation. Therefore, the process of "grinding in" the company and the employee must be manageable - we tell you how electronic courses can help with this.

About 30% of employees leave in the first three months

During the adaptation period, both the employee and the company itself adapt to each other. A new employee is gradually included in the work process, establishes communication with colleagues, gets acquainted with corporate standards and dress code.

In some companies, adaptation proceeds spontaneously - the leader is limited to an introductory briefing, hoping that the team itself will bring the newcomer up to date. This leads the employee to burnout, or even forces him to start looking for a new job. According to Jobvite, 29% of employees leave within the first three months due to stress caused by poor onboarding programs. Reasons for anxiety are often insignificant, in the opinion of the employer, factors, such as a lack of understanding of the unspoken office rules.
