Introduction
TRAINING PHASES
PHASE 1: Pre-Employment Engagement
This phase is centered around pre-employment engagement. It is essential that this information be communicated with clarity and consistency to our new hires during their transition into MPS.
PHASE 2: New Employee Orientation
This phase is extremely important to the overall success and retention of employees in our district. New Employee Orientation introduces them to the culture of MPS.
PHASE 3: Interdepartmental On-Boarding
This phase known as “crossing over” is one of the most unique phases because it will take the new employee on a journey outside of their department and into other departments.
PHASE 4: Performance Management Process
This phase covers the importance of the Performance Management process for new employees and will serve to establish goals and objectives related to the new employee’s role within the organization.
