What does effective onboarding look like?

Effective onboarding with an LMS involves pre-boarding content to prepare new hires, structured learning paths tailored to specific roles, and interactive training modules for engagement. Ensure mobile access for on-the-go learning and use the LMS to track progress and completion. Automated workflows keep new hires on track with reminders and notifications, while personalized content makes the experience relevant. Incorporate regular assessments and feedback opportunities, facilitate social learning through forums and chats, and provide a resource library for ongoing reference. This approach ensures a smooth, efficient, and engaging onboarding experience. See how Absorb LMS helped reduce onboarding time by 40% in the Forrester TEI Study commissioned by Absorb LMS.
