At ACU, the Induction Program is a significant first step in becoming acquainted with the University and in particular, your campus, helping you to settle into your new role. Induction is crucial to your employment and provides you with information on how to perform your job effectively, enjoyably and safely. You will also have the opportunity to learn more about your workplace and where to go to for information.
As part of your Induction at ACU, you are required to take part in all components within the first six months of employment at ACU.
Ongoing conversations with your supervisor are crucial to supporting induction at a local level. These conversations help to clarify expectations of your role, discuss resources, preferred ways of working and your learning needs, and are an opportunity to give and receive feedback about your progress. On commencement, your supervisor will organise a time to meet to discuss your new role and to answer any questions you have.
E-Essentials is a range of online modules, covering topics that you need to know in order to be legally compliant.
