Onboarding & inductions clients
Questions, answered.
The things people ask us most. Got something else? We're happy to chat.
Ask a questionWe design everything from single-role inductions to organisation-wide frameworks. Our programs are built around your people, your processes, and the way you work. This can include:
- Site, WHS/OHS and systems inductions
- Values, behaviours and culture
- Onboarding for new starters or specific cohorts (e.g. grads, leaders, volunteers)
- Corporate compliance and policies
- Tools and tech training
- Customer experience and service expectations
We can build it in eLearning, face-to-face or blended formats. Our induction programs help learners understand the work, the workplace, and how to thrive in it.
Absolutely. We build WHS, compliance and regulatory training into your onboarding so new starters know how to work safely from day one.
These include:
- Tailored safety modules based on role, risk and location
- Modules aligned with industry and legal requirements
- Visual design that makes safety messages clear and memorable
- Clear signposting so learners know how to apply what they’ve learned
We can build it, tailor it, or plug it straight in. We’ve got ready-to-go WHS and compliance modules aligned to Australian legislation via eCompliance Training, or we can create something fully custom for your organisation.
Our most in-demand topics include:
- Work Health and Safety (WHS) – Keeps your people safe, meets legal obligations, and reduces risk.
- Bullying, Harassment and Discrimination (Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO)) – Covers respectful behaviour, responsibilities, and reporting.
- Sexual Harassment – Defines boundaries, outlines your duty to prevent, and explains how to respond.
- Privacy and Data Protection – Helps teams handle personal info the right way, under the Privacy Act.
- Code of Conduct/Ethics – Sets expectations for professional behaviour and everyday decisions.
You can browse our ready-to-go compliance courses at eCompliance Training, or talk to us about building something unique for your team.
Yes! We start with discovery, mapping out your roles, audiences and environments. From there, we identify what each group needs to know, do and understand from day one, and design the learning around that.
We can:
- Create core content with variations for different cohorts
- Design modular programs that flex by location or business unit
- Include branching scenarios and learner pathways
- Translate or localise content where needed
Our goal is to deliver the right message, in the right way, to the right people.
Yes. We start by getting to know your people—what roles they’re in, how they learn, and where they’ll be doing that learning. Then we design onboarding that’s practical, accessible and built to support them from day one.
We recommend delivery methods and learning strategies based on what’s realistic and effective for your environment.
For non-desk workers, onboarding often needs to feel practical, clear and immediately useful. That might mean hands-on, in-the-moment learning supported by visual tools and coaching, and on-the-job training, rather than eLearning.
For dispersed workers, that might include:
- Mobile-friendly modules that fit around shifts, travel or downtime
- Short, focused content that’s easy to access and apply in the flow of work
- Visual-first design with walkthroughs, diagrams, and practical examples
- Offline or low-bandwidth options for remote areas or limited connectivity
- Printed resources and quick-start guides where digital isn’t an option
- Facilitated virtual sessions to build connection and allow for real-time Q&A
- Buddy systems or peer check-ins so learners feel supported early on
- Manager-led onboarding plans with coaching prompts and clear role expectations
- Reflection activities and goal-setting tools to build early engagement
The goal is to make learning feel relevant, human and supported, wherever someone starts.

Why we sometimes put characters in eLearning
We use characters in eLearning only when they do a real job: modelling behaviour, carrying scenarios or showing consequences. Here is how we decide.
Read articleRise 360 can now skip content a learner already knows, run custom adaptive interactions and answer questions inside the course. Here is what that takes.
Bloom's taxonomy classifies learning by the thinking it demands. We break down the six revised levels, the knowledge dimension and how to apply it at work.
Learning design turns a business problem into learning that changes behaviour. See what it involves, the process behind it, and how to get it right.
A learning journey spreads learning over time so it actually sticks. See five worked examples, an eight-step design process and what platforms you need.
Cognitive load theory explains why training overwhelms people. The three load types, the effects that matter, and how we apply it to real programs.
