How to Create an Induction Program

5 September 2023 🇷🇺 Original: русский 1 min read

1. Define the objective of the induction.

The objective answers the question: what should the employee do after the induction? For example, the goal could be to teach employees how to act to save their own lives and the lives of others in case of danger. Why define an objective? It helps to structure the induction material more clearly and avoid unnecessary information.

2. Write down 5-7 rules that every employee must know.


Note that a person can remember and retain no more than 5-7 values. This will improve the quality of information absorption.

3. Create an image, metaphor, or visual for each rule.

Note: the image or metaphor should be vivid. This will help retain the information for a long time.

4. Formulate 3-5 practical skills that every employee must master.

This should be a simple action that is easy to remember and perform, for example, in case of danger. This is necessary so that every employee can quickly recall the required action when a hazard arises.

5. Develop exercises, a game for practicing skills, or a test.

Key point: the exercise should be easy to complete in a short time (no more than 10-15 minutes). This is needed to check how well employees have absorbed the material provided during the induction.
