Onboarding and Beyond: Making Learning Continuous

In the wake of the Great Resignation, organizations are beginning to gear up for a Great Onboarding. The tide will shift as companies bring in new talent to fill gaps that emerged over the past year or so. 

To make the most of this shift, organizations must rethink their approach to onboarding. Far too often, it is seen as a transactional HR process that starts on Day One and ends as soon as possible. Employees are shuffled through an assembly line of silos from new-hire training, to compliance, to skill-building. It is a huge, missed opportunity.

A culture of learning begins during onboarding — if not before. Companies must build seamless learning experiences that are uniquely focused on exactly what the learner needs in that moment — whether it’s their first day or they are 10-year veterans developing leadership skills.
