What this employee onboarding course covers

This onboarding course is part of HCMI's certification path and teaches you to design a new-hire experience that improves retention, not just a checklist for day one.

  • Why onboarding is a retention lever, not paperwork

    See why new hires decide whether to stay within their first 90 days, and how a weak onboarding process quietly drives early attrition. Learn to distinguish onboarding from orientation, and design a program that builds real belonging, not just IT setup and forms.

  • Designing the new-hire experience end to end

    Walk through pre-boarding, the first day, and the first 90 days as one connected experience, with a manager and buddy system that actually gets used. Includes practical templates you can adapt rather than build from a blank page.

  • Who this course is for

    Built for HR professionals and people managers who own the new-hire experience, especially useful if your current onboarding is inconsistent across teams or ends after the first week.
