TRAINING Training is a critical part of the onboarding process, helping new employees develop the skills and knowledge necessary to perform their job roles effectively. It also contributes to employee growth, engagement, and retention by ensuring they feel prepared and supported. On-the-job training involves learning while performing the actual job tasks. New employees are supervised and guided as they handle real responsibilities. Types of On-the-Job Training: Job Rotation: Employees rotate through different roles or departments to learn a variety of skills. This helps them understand the broader context of the company and become more versatile. Job Shadowing: New employees observe experienced colleagues to learn how tasks are performed. This is common in technical or complex roles where observation and imitation help develop skills. Hands-On Practice: After some initial instruction, the employee performs job tasks with supervision, allowing them to gain experience and receive real-time feedback. METHODS ON-THE-JOB TRAINING (OJT) Mentoring pairs new employees with experienced colleagues (mentors) who provide guidance, advice, and support.

Key Elements of Mentoring: One-on-One Support: Mentors provide personal support and share insights that help the new employee adjust to the role and the organizational environment. Skill Development: Mentors offer specific advice on improving job performance, solving problems, and developing professional skills. Career Growth: Mentors can help guide the employee’s career development by sharing their own experiences, offering networking opportunities, and discussing potential career paths within the company. METHODS MENTORING Formal training involves structured learning sessions, either in-person or virtual, often led by internal trainers or external experts. Types of Formal Training: Workshops: Interactive training sessions that often involve hands-on activities, role-playing, group discussions, or problem-solving exercises. Seminars and Webinars: Expert-led sessions on relevant topics such as leadership, technical skills, or compliance regulations. These may be in person or online. E-Learning: Online courses or training modules that employees can complete at their own pace. These are useful for ongoing learning or when new information needs to be disseminated quickly across an organization.
