Online induction system

An online induction is the important thing for new employee to know the background of their new company. According to Torres-Coronas and Arias-Oliva (2005), online induction is the big picture of what are the company was. I can say that an online induction system is the system that we use to new workers when there was employed in that company. This topic is really related to the story when I was in UTM. Before I came to UTM, I was get information what are UTM policies, vision, and mission and so on by using UTM webpage. During in UTM, I also had been introducing by the facilitator or crew about the background of UTM. But the introduction was manually. Meanwhile, an online introduction system is using the system only to get the idea what the company or institute was. This type of system can reduce a lot of cost and human energy. This is because if we used introduction to our company manually, we need to participate it and use some money to pay the instructor. But an online induction system just the system that already rigid and the organization can update it when they want or if there get new information that had been changed. Besides that, there are also had disadvantages about e-induction program. There are lacks of human relationship because these systems are not face-to-face system. When I was first time in UTM, the facilitators are being so friendly to us, after the induction program, we always keep in touch and know each other. So, there are pro and cons to use any program system, we as human must know how to manage it to make sure that we are always going into the right way.
