Question: Orientation or onboarding training is a very important aspect of any organization. Often this type of training is done when a new employee first begins their job. Sometimes this is done in person, some organizations have online new hire orientations. Have you ever been in a position where there was no orientation? Or the training was done much later after you were hired? Do you think training is limited to new employees or can it be ongoing training for new and seasoned employees? The truth is that HR professionals are trained to train other employees in many different capacities. I do not know many companies that have people from the outside come and train new employees on company-specific skills or responsibilities when an outside person is not part of the organization. Usually, the corporate HR directors or managers are the people that will train all other company HR professionals so they can conduct new-hire training as well as ongoing training such as benefits, safety, diversity, etc. Have any of you ever been involved with training other employees in an HR role? If so, what type of training and how was it received by other employees. Please share with the class.
