Defining e-learning and its Utilization in the Onboarding Process of New Hires

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

All large Japanese companies have similar systems for adapting and training new hires. Newcomers undergo intensive induction training which includes both skill transfer and socialization followed by on-the- job training, where new hires can experience different sides of the company environment on a rotational basis. In order to challenge the institutionalized large Japanese companies' onboarding environment, this book is asking the question whether e-learning activities could play a role in the interaction between companies and newcomers, allow the latter to act more individually during the adaptation process and thus influence their learning. In the process of setting the frames of this relationship, the present book is explaining the systematic' nature of e-learning and its accelerating effects on organizational learning, and proposes a vision of a contemporary onboarding process.
