Some of our work > Making a difference

The need
The University of Liverpool are often faced with a significant task when welcoming new staff to the organisation. The existing programme involved a full day out of the office with many different speakers covering a lot of information for new staff to take in. The Organisational Development team wanted to offer greater support to new staff by taking the induction programme online.
The solution
We started by providing consultancy on how to structure the learning design. The existing induction information was disparate, so we grouped the content into themed areas and suggested these be delivered in a series of four ‘episodes’. We also rationalised the content so that it was more digestible and focused on the essential central induction information. Each episode includes a combination of interactive media, including new video content.
The results
The content was delivered in a new attractive website, integrated with the University’s internal systems, allowing the Organisation Development team to track who has undertaken the e-induction programme and how much they have completed. This enables them to follow-up with local departments to ensure that new staff are receiving the support they need. The feedback from senior managers and staff across the organisation has been very positive.
What the client said
“Working with iflourish has been a real pleasure. They form part of a small collection of people I have worked with over the last twenty years who display a rare talent in actually understanding a client’s needs. What they have delivered for us at the University has been nothing short of excellent. I would thoroughly recommend them to anyone who is looking for a quality e-learning company.”
