Hi there!
I'm Caitlin Sutherland, an Instructional Designer at Chamberlain University.
I’m excited to introduce you to The First Step Technology Toolkit, a centralized resource designed to help managers find the right tools to make the employee onboarding process smoother and more efficient.
Let’s talk onboarding.
Onboarding is an essential process, but it can be complex and overwhelming for both managers and new hires. From managing communication across teams, ensuring consistency in training, providing the right resources, and integrating new employees into the company culture, there are many moving parts that need to be aligned. Whether you're dealing with in-office, remote, or hybrid teams, it’s easy for onboarding to become disorganized without the right resources in place. That’s where The First Step Technology Toolkit comes in.
The First Step Technology Toolkit is here to help.
This website is a resource hub where you can discover a variety of tech tools that will assist in different aspects of onboarding, from communication and collaboration to task management and training. Each page of the toolkit features carefully selected tools for specific onboarding needs. For example, our Communication and Collaboration page will provide you with a range of tools to help you connect with new hires, facilitate team interactions, and ensure smooth communication throughout the onboarding process. Whether you need tools for virtual meetings, project management, or resource sharing, you’ll find everything you need to make your onboarding process more organized and effective.
HCI's 2023 onboarding stats show that organizations investing in onboarding processes reap several benefits. In addition to increased revenue, 64% of respondents noticed improvements in their key performance indicators (KPIs). Moreover, 54% reported boosts in employee engagement.
