U+Education would like to improve its onboarding processes by streamlining it. We want the onboarding process to reflect U+ as a company, promoting company culture and increasing employee retention. The onboarding experience should be intuitive, helpful, functional and virtual. 

Timeline: Report should be completed by Jan 2023 (before a new season of onboarding)

• Analyzing the current onboarding processes within U+ (i.e Google Site)
• Research online onboarding platforms that U+ could take advantage of
• Investigating and understanding best practices for SaaS onboarding
• User feedback by testing and current staff to determine where improvements need to be made
• Industry research: examine how competitors are operating their onboarding processes and identify which onboarding practices are best at reaching employees and making a lasting impact
• Create introduction and icebreaker section of the onboarding process to introduce new hires to the company culture and values

Deliverables:

• Develop familiarity with different onboarding platforms and identify the one with the most - potential for success at U+
• Create a report with an onboarding change proposal customized for U+ and its values/mission (include statistics, graphs and diagrams)
• Present ideas and onboarding concepts effectively with evidence through a PPT presentation

• Students will connect directly with the employer for regular mentorship and supervision throughout the project.
• U+ will provide students with access to previous onboarding tools (i.e Google Site), feedback from employees on these systems and will answer any questions
• Students will attend regular team meetings or meet with employees to learn updates and contribute to brainstorming sessions.
