Step one: Start with purpose

Traditional onboarding often involves introductions, office tours, and system access. However, to truly empower your new team members, consider integrating WiseTech Academy courses into your onboarding process. Personalize these courses to align with each employee's specific role, ensuring they embark on their journey armed with the knowledge they need to excel.

By beginning their tenure with an understanding of CargoWise, they will be more confident, capable, and productive from the outset. This strategic approach sets the stage for a successful onboarding process.

Step two: Foster collaboration

Onboarding should never be a solo endeavor. While independent learning is crucial, providing support is equally important. Connect your new team members with peers or colleagues who have navigated a similar path. This collaborative approach not only enhances their learning experience but also helps build strong networks within your organization.

Working together and sharing experiences can be the catalyst for innovation and problem-solving, contributing to a thriving organizational culture.

Your experienced staff members are a goldmine of knowledge. The Academy offers structured eLearning, but you can take it up a notch with regular mentorship sessions. These sessions include Q&A time and insights from your CargoWise experts.

Encourage new team members to take control of their learning journey and make the most of these valuable interactions. Learning from those who have mastered CargoWise is an excellent way to gain insights and practical knowledge.

Step four: Embrace continuous learning

Completing essential CargoWise online courses is just the beginning. Encourage your team to explore the wealth of additional resources available within the WiseTech Academy. New staff members get exposed to a whole new library of related industry content and potential qualifications, including the WiseTech Diploma of International Freight Forwarding.

They may also want to consider getting CargoWise certified, which enables them to validate their expertise and earn industry-recognized qualifications, which is a 'win-win' for your them along with your team and company.

Step five: Tailor learning programs

Customization is the key to a successful onboarding experience. Take the time to design personalized learning programs within the Academy for each new team member. Mapping out their training journey ensures that they receive the right knowledge and skills to succeed in their specific roles.

By tailoring training to their needs, you'll empower your new hires to become more confident and efficient in their roles, while also demonstrating your commitment to their success.

Step six: Celebrate progress

Reward and recognition are powerful motivators. Celebrate the small wins as your employees progress through the Academy's courses. Recognize their efforts and achievements, fueling a sense of accomplishment and motivating them to keep learning.

So, the next time you're faced with the task of onboarding new team members, remember that CargoWise Learning isn't just a solution for your current staff – it's also the answer to efficiently integrating new talent into your organization.
