Totara Recipe: How to onboard new hires effectively

Welcome to our new Totara Recipe series, where we’ll be working with Platinum Partner Webanywhere to show you everything you need to cook up a storm with your Totara LMS.

Our first recipe comes from Webanywhere’s Philip Rushworth, and is all about onboarding with Totara Lear.

Onboarding employees can be time consuming and difficult. We’ve created a simple recipe that runs from the team introduction all the way through to the new hire’s first day. There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to employee onboarding, but here are a few ingredients that can help.

Ingredients
  • Onboarding pla
  • Awareness: culture & values of the business
  • Team introductions
  • Compliance training
  • Mentor in the process
  • Access to systems
  • Open mind and inquisitive attitude

  • Reporting mechanism
Preparatio

Method

  • Migrate valuable data/content over to your new LMS
  • Training at the point of need
  • Use gamification with badges, rewards or other fun ways of motivating your learners
Serve and enjoy!
  • Instant productivity as your workforce knows how to perform the first exchange right after they onboard
  • Efficiency as employees and partners to start to own tasks quickly or complete sales successfully
