Employee induction made e-easy

Induction, from UK training specialist Balance Learning, is a blended learning programme that can help public sector organisations improve the efficiency of their induction process for new employees — reducing staff time spent away from the workplace.

The programme includes a template for face-to-face workshops and work assignments, as well as a customisable online course developed in partnership with Cambridgeshire County Council.

The course covers mandatory details on the implications of data protection, freedom of information and health and safety issues, and a section that can be tailored to fit the organisation’s history, mission, structure, values, goals and policies. Featuring interactive exercises and tests before and after completion, it gives feedback on whether the training has been undertaken and understood.


The trainer pack includes details on how to use Induction and contains PowerPoint slides, hand-outs, exercises and role plays, and a facilitator’s script for the workshop.

Balance Learning (see www.balancelearning.co.uk) also supplies post-training activities and assignments to aid the transfer of learning back to the workplace.
