Edamend Solutions partnered with Evermed Inc. to design and implement a comprehensive onboarding training program for them from scratch, ensuring efficient, consistent, and engaging training for their new hires.

Introduction

Evermed Inc. is a fast-growing software company in the digital-pharmaceutical sector, that aims to amplify the impact of medical education through technology and innovation. Being a highly learning-oriented organization, they recognized the critical need to streamline their onboarding process and ensure consistent training for new hires. With no existing training infrastructure in place, Evermed sought a comprehensive solution to onboard employees efficiently and effectively. That’s when Edamend Solutions came into the picture!

The Need

Evermed Inc. faced a significant challenge in onboarding new employees due to the absence of a structured training program. They had several meticulously developed Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), as well as videos walking employees through different aspects of their company processes. However, the lack of standardized training led to inconsistencies in knowledge acquisition and hindered employee productivity and integration into the company culture. Recognizing the importance of a robust onboarding process, Evermed sought a partner to develop and implement a tailored training program.

Approach

Edamend Solutions embarked on a collaborative journey with Evermed Inc. to design and implement a comprehensive onboarding training program from scratch. Leveraging her instructional design and e-learning development expertise, Anuradha (Anu) Gopu, the Founder & CEO of Edamend Solutions, devised a strategic approach to address Evermed's specific needs.

Implementation

Needs Assessment: Anu conducted a thorough needs assessment to identify key learning objectives and understand the unique requirements of Evermed's workforce.
Curriculum Development: Based on the assessment findings, Anu then developed a customized curriculum encompassing essential topics such as company policies, job-specific skills, and compliance training.
LMS Setup: In parallel, Anu assisted Evermed in selecting and implementing a Learning Management System (LMS) tailored to their requirements. We chose TalentLMS due to its robust features and affordable pricing plans.
Content Creation: Anu then created engaging e-learning modules, interactive assessments, and multimedia resources to deliver engaging and effective training materials.
Rollout Strategy: Lastly, Anu devised a phased rollout strategy to ensure a smooth transition of new hires into the organization.

Challenges

The main challenge faced during the project was the tight timeline for implementation. Despite this constraint, Edamend Solutions remained committed to delivering a high-quality solution without compromising effectiveness.

The impact of Edamend Solution’s collaboration with Evermed Inc. was transformative:
