Staff Induction

Staff Induction, Mentoring and Development

Induction is the process through which a new staff member is welcomed and quickly assimilated into the College organization. Mentoring is the process through which the new staff member can seek information and advice over the first three months of work from his/her head of unit or colleague. Development is the process through which a staff member expands his/her professional skills, knowledge, and awareness through internal and external training sessions, conferences, workshops etc. Effective staff induction, mentoring and development procedures help to support staff morale and job satisfaction. They guide the new staff to be competent and efficient in their work.
