Create digital onboarding in 5 minutes

Onboarding is a process, i.e. a procedure that new employees go through in order to familiarize themselves with the work processes of a company as quickly, effectively and efficiently as possible, i.e. the targeted integration of new employees.

Onboarding is a concept from HR management, where measures are used to make it easier for employees to find their feet in the new company and in their new position.

You and your employees are responsible for training new colleagues properly and well. There are topics that need to be explained again and again to almost every new employee, and it is precisely for these topics that it makes sense to create online courses. This ensures consistently high quality and saves a huge amount of time, as these topics do not have to be explained each time, but are provided once.

Digital onboarding or employee training courses are useful for explaining procedures in your company or for communicating new processes in an understandable way. This allows your employees to familiarize themselves independently and receive ongoing training so that they are always up to date.

As your company grows, all employees need to be brought up to speed again and again. Online courses help with this, they give employees the big picture and also help new employees. This increases morale and, above all, employee understanding enormously.

According to experts, each new employee spends around 10 to 20 hours of additional time on basic things such as common safety instructions and general information about the company.

If several employees are hired each month, this quickly adds up to 20 to 80 hours per month and the more complex the job requirements are, the more time is required. This time can be saved by digitizing this content.

E-learning is not only useful for onboarding new employees. Here you can introduce them to various software and programs, work processes and structures in a targeted manner and, with Memberspot, you can also easily attach files such as PDFs or checklists.

But e-learning is also interesting for companies afterwards, you can record training digitally and thus keep your employees up to date with the latest news in a wide variety of areas, e.g. when it comes to hygiene regulations or new data protection regulations.

Online courses can also be used to teach soft skills for certain positions, allowing you to provide your employees with additional qualifications.

However, you don't have to create the online courses for your company on your own, especially if you already have experienced colleagues or experts in certain departments, they can also pack their knowledge into course units. In this way, you can also secure this expert knowledge in the event that these employees are absent or leave the company, new employees can be trained much more efficiently and quickly or can take over vacation/sickness cover.

With digital onboarding, the regular onboarding process is incorporated into online training or online courses. This means you don't have to keep repeating yourself when training new employees and can guarantee consistently high quality.

Furthermore, the learning progress of each employee can be easily and quickly documented and evaluated and knowledge can be tested using exams and quizzes.

If an employee has forgotten something, they can look at the relevant topic again independently and deepen their knowledge without having to ask several times.

A well-structured onboarding process enables new employees to perform more quickly. Regardless of the industry, it is important to quickly understand the new company, processes, services or products in order to be able to work productively quickly.

As a company, you can therefore save time and money if you ensure a good, high-quality induction right from the start. This also increases the motivation and satisfaction of new employees, as they feel part of the company more quickly and can work independently. This in turn has an effect on the number of departures during the probationary period, which can be significantly minimized.

You can do this very easily and quickly with short explanatory videos, allowing you to convey knowledge and skills flexibly. Once recorded, your employees can access them again and again. This works for everything from onboarding to mentoring. With Memberspot, you can easily and clearly evaluate the learning progress of your employees with functions such as member reporting.

But there are no limits to your creativity here: in addition to videos, you can also include audio files, texts, images, external attachments such as PDFs, links or individual exams and quizzes in your online training courses. You are completely free to present the content to your employees in the best possible and understandable way. This way, you can ensure that all your employees are at the same level at all times.
