Virtual Internship Resources

Typical features of a virtual onboarding program include simulations, case studies, pre-work, quizzes, and continued guided learning after the formal sessions have been completed. Ensuring that new hires are connected to the organization’s internal network is also critical to accelerating onboarding and fostering the development of relationships that contribute to helping new employees get up-to-speed quickly. Introductions to critical key stakeholders throughout the organization are also important, as is clear communication and reinforcement of core values.
