TRAINING and DEVELOPMENT

One Week Induction Programme



To help enable new or existing staff understand their job role, and any training requirements, an induction course has to be formulated.

This is the responsibility of the HR management and should include an introduction, company policies, uniforms, introduction to all management, site visit and information regarding the 2 year course.

A venue has to be arranged, teas and coffees organised, lunch (if supplied), and a copy of the induction programme should be handed out to all managers.

The programme should be arranged over the course of 1 week, and posted out to all candidates prior to attending. (business link, 2010)

Ongoing Training

Although this is an introduction to the company, and the 2 year course, the candidates should have meetings to discuss any problems or concerns. This can be with either their line manager, HR management or designated mentor.
Any training requirements can be given during, and after, the two year course.

Venue

The venue has to be within easy access for candidates to locate. It should be inviting, comfortable and have any amenities required by any disabled candidates.
Location is important, and near to any local transport routes.
