Reduce the administrative work and the cost of training
Online Orientations reduce the administrative work and the cost of training the workers and subcontractors. The workers and subcontractors can simply click a unique URL (web link) to instantly setup their account and take the online courses required. Regardless of whatever job they are doing, an online platform can ensure that the contract workers are fully oriented, safe and productive BEFORE arriving to the worksite. The project owners can communicate directly with the contract workers, or through the labor supplier they work for. It streamlines the projects on-boarding program and reduces the time spent on admin. In this case, workers or subcontractors take the online orientation(s) PRIOR to arriving at the worksite. Typically online training is 40% shorter in duration and helps non-native English workers with content-comprehension better than traditional lecture-based classroom training. Online training is low-pressure, self-directed and available 24/7.
