In BC’s non-profit and community service sectors, supervisors are often tasked with onboarding and training new staff quickly — sometimes under urgent, high-pressure circumstances. With limited time, high caseloads, and complex service delivery models, it’s easy for new hires to feel overwhelmed and for supervisors to feel like they’re “training on the fly.” The result? Information overload, inconsistent performance, and burnout on both sides.
This workshop is designed specifically for supervisors who need to develop and deliver effective in-house training — fast, but without sacrificing quality. It focuses on practical, efficient training strategies that help your team members absorb, retain, and apply essential knowledge and skills — whether you’re onboarding new hires, rolling out new procedures, or addressing performance gaps.
In this session, you’ll learn:
– How to structure training that’s clear, focused, and digestible — not overwhelming;
– Adult learning principles and how they apply in fast-paced workplace training;
– Tools for delivering training in bite-sized, repeatable formats that build long-term retention;
– Strategies for combining hands-on practice with clear policy and procedural instruction;
– How to assess learning in real-time and adjust your approach as needed; and
– Simple tools for documentation, evaluation, and follow-up that supports accountability and growth.
This workshop will help you move beyond “sink or swim” onboarding and equip you with practical methods to grow confident, capable team members — even in the face of time constraints and resource challenges.
