Dear Anne - you've probably seen Ranald's reply and have
always run 'orientation' not 'induction'. For years -
until recently - I always ran an 'orientation' for all new
academic and academically related staff - or as many as I
could get hold of!. In it's original form half of the time
was taken up with a 'fair' of as many services as I could
get into one of our large committee rooms, who had stalls
that new staff could go round at their leisure - plus coffee
and things. It took a lot of organising and cajoling but
worked very well and gave staff time to think and ask
questions. I also ran the first part in our senate chamber
- probably the only time some of them would ever see where a
lot of the decision-making took place.
I'm on the end of the phone or the email until Wednesday
next if you would like more information.
Jessica.
