Who Should Attend

Learning Outcomes

A good induction can increase staff retention, reduce the time needed for a new staff member to settle into the workplace and generally make a happier work force.

•  Why is a good induction important?
• Is your induction process well-structured and allowing flexibility for the new recruit?
• What do new recruits need to know in their first week/first day?
• How can you make new recruits feel comfortable and confident in the work place?
• How best can you integrate the new recruit with other team members? How do you prepare others?
• How good is your welcome and introduction (which needs to reflect the culture, goals, shared values and expectations of your practice)?
• What training will you offer? Who will do this? What about learning styles? How do you ensure the training is effective?
• Planning
• Feedback – learning from new recruits and acting on recommendations and improvements.
