ONBOARDING TRAINING
Onboarding training, also known as orientation or induction
training, is the process of familiarizing newly hired employees
with the organization, their role, and the expectations
associated with their position. The goal of onboarding
training is to help new employees integrate smoothly into the
company, understand their responsibilities, and quickly
become productive members of the team. It typically takes
place within the first few days or weeks of a new employee's
tenure.
Here are some key components and considerations in
onboarding training:
1. Introduction to the organization: New employees should
be provided with an overview of the company's mission,
values, history, and organizational structure. This helps them
understand the company's culture and how their role
contributes to the overall goals of the organization.
2. Role-specific training: Onboarding should include
training on the specific tasks, responsibilities, and
expectations associated with the new employee's position.
This may involve explaining job duties, demonstrating
processes, and providing access to relevant tools, software,
or resources.
3. Company policies and procedures: New employees
should receive information about important company
policies, such as those related to code of conduct, safety,
security, and confidentiality. They should also be made aware
of any procedures or protocols specific to their role or
department.
4. Introduction to colleagues and key stakeholders: It is
beneficial to facilitate introductions between new employees
and their team members, supervisors, and other key
individuals within the organization. This helps build
relationships, promote collaboration, and create a support
network for the new employee.
5. Workplace culture and values: Onboarding training
should emphasize the organization's culture, values, and
expected behaviors. This includes promoting inclusivity,
diversity, and a positive work environment. Sharing examples
and stories that illustrate the desired culture can help new
employees understand and align with the company's
expectations.
6. Benefits and resources: New employees should be
informed about the employee benefits package, including
health insurance, retirement plans, and any other perks or
resources available to them. They should also be provided
with information about HR policies, such as leave policies,
time tracking, and performance evaluation processes.
7. Ongoing support and mentorship: Onboarding training
should not be limited to the initial few days or weeks.
Organizations can provide ongoing support and mentorship
to new employees to help them acclimate to their roles and
continue their professional development. Assigning a mentor
or buddy to guide and support the new employee can be
valuable in this regard.
8. Evaluation and feedback: It is helpful to periodically
assess the effectiveness of the onboarding training and solicit
feedback from new employees. This allows organizations to
make improvements and address any areas where the
onboarding process may be lacking.
Onboarding training plays a crucial role in setting the stage
for a positive employee experience and long-term success
within the organization. By providing new employees with
the necessary knowledge, tools, and support, organizations
can increase employee engagement, retention, and
productivity.
EXTERNAL TRAINING
External training refers to training programs and courses that
are conducted by external providers, outside of an
organization's premises. Instead of developing and delivering
the training internally, companies send their employees to
external training providers or workshops to enhance their
skills, knowledge, and competencies.
Here are some key aspects and benefits of external training:
1. Expertise and specialized knowledge: External training
providers often specialize in specific areas and have expertise
in delivering training programs. They bring in-depth
knowledge, industry best practices, and the latest insights to
the training sessions. Employees can benefit from the
expertise of trainers who are well-versed in their respective
fields.

employees the opportunity to interact with professionals
from other organizations and industries. This exposure allows
them to gain fresh perspectives, share experiences, and learn
from diverse viewpoints. It broadens their horizons and
encourages innovative thinking.
3. Up-to-date content and trends: External training
providers are usually at the forefront of their respective
industries and stay updated with the latest trends,
technologies, and practices. Attending external training
sessions ensures that employees receive current and relevant
information that can be applied directly to their work.
4. Networking opportunities: External training programs
provide a platform for employees to network with peers,
professionals, and experts from different organizations.
Building a network can lead to valuable connections,
collaborations, and knowledge-sharing beyond the training
session.
5. Intensive and focused learning: External training
programs are often designed to provide intensive and
focused learning experiences. They may include interactive
workshops, case studies, simulations, and practical exercises
that allow employees to apply their knowledge and skills in
real-world scenarios.
6. Customization and variety: External training providers
offer a wide range of training programs catering to various
skill sets, industries, and job roles. Companies can choose the
most suitable training options for their employees based on
their specific needs and development objectives.
7. Certification and credentials: Some external training
programs offer certifications or credentials upon successful
completion. These certifications can add value to employees'
resumes, enhance their professional profiles, and
demonstrate their commitment to ongoing learning and
development.
8. Motivation and engagement: Sending employees to
external training can be motivating and engaging for them. It
shows that the company invests in their growth and
development, which can boost employee morale, job
satisfaction, and loyalty.
When considering external training, organizations should:
• Research and select reputable training providers with a
proven track record and positive reviews.
• Align the training programs with the organization's
goals, strategic objectives, and employees' development
needs.
• Communicate clear expectations and objectives to
employees attending external training programs.
• Evaluate the effectiveness and impact of the external
training to ensure a return on investment.
Overall, external training complements internal learning and
development initiatives by providing employees with
specialized knowledge, exposure to new ideas, and
networking opportunities. It contributes to their professional
growth, enhances their skills, and ultimately benefits the
organization by increasing employee capabilities and
performance.
FOREIGN TRAINING
Foreign training refers to training programs or courses that
take place in a foreign country, usually outside of an
employee's home country. It involves sending employees to
other countries to receive training, develop new skills, or gain
exposure to different cultures, practices, and business
environments. Foreign training opportunities are typically
provided by organizations to broaden employees'
perspectives, enhance their global competencies, and
facilitate cross-cultural understanding.
Here are some key aspects and benefits of foreign training:
1. Cross-cultural exposure and understanding: Foreign
training provides employees with firsthand exposure to
different cultures, customs, and work practices. This
experience helps them develop a broader perspective and a
better understanding of global business environments. It
fosters cultural sensitivity, adaptability, and the ability to
work effectively with diverse teams and clients.
2. Global networking and collaboration: Attending training
programs in foreign countries allows employees to connect
and build relationships with professionals from various
backgrounds and industries. This networking can lead to
future collaboration opportunities, business partnerships,
and knowledge exchange.
3. Access to specialized expertise: Foreign training
programs often feature renowned trainers, industry experts,
and academic institutions with specialized knowledge and
expertise in specific areas. Employees can benefit from
learning directly from these experts and gaining insights into
cutting-edge practices and trends.
4. Exposure to international best practices: By participating
in foreign training, employees can learn about international
best practices, innovative approaches, and emerging trends
in their field. This knowledge can be applied to their work
and contribute to organizational improvement and
competitiveness.
5. Language and communication skills development:
Foreign training provides employees with opportunities to
improve their language skills, particularly if the training is
conducted in a language different from their native language.
Enhancing language proficiency can enhance cross-cultural
communication and facilitate international business
interactions.
6. Personal and professional growth: Foreign training
experiences can be transformative for employees on both
personal and professional levels. Living and working in a
different country challenges individuals to step out of their
comfort zones, adapt to new situations, and develop
resilience. It can also boost confidence, self-reliance, and
problem-solving skills.
7. Enhanced global market knowledge: Foreign training
exposes employees to different markets, business practices,
and economic landscapes. They gain insights into market
dynamics, consumer behavior, and industry trends of the
host country. This knowledge can be invaluable for
organizations expanding into international markets or
working with global clients.
8. Retention and employee engagement: Providing foreign
training opportunities demonstrates an organization's
commitment to employee development and can significantly
enhance employee retention and engagement. Employees
appreciate the investment made in their growth, which can
foster loyalty and motivation.
When planning for foreign training, organizations should:
• Identify the specific training needs and objectives for
employees and match them with appropriate training
programs in foreign countries.
• Ensure employees are adequately prepared for the
cultural and logistical aspects of living and working in a
foreign country, such as visa requirements, health and safety
considerations, and cultural orientation.
• Provide support and resources to employees during
their foreign training, such as language training, cultural
awareness programs, and access to local contacts for
assistance.
• Establish mechanisms to capture and share the
knowledge and experiences gained during the foreign
training to maximize organizational learning and benefit
other employees.
Foreign training can be a valuable investment for
organizations and employees alike. It promotes global
perspectives, cultural competence, and professional growth,
while also positioning the organization for success in the
global marketplace.
