A MODERN APPROACH TO NEW DRIVER ORIENTATION

Onboarding new drivers is a critical investment in your company’s long-term success. But if you’re still doing all your driver onboarding and new-hire orientation training in a classroom or conference room, you aren’t getting as much out of that investment as you could.

Whether your new employee is a long-haul truck driver, a delivery driver, or an employee with a company work truck, ITI can provide that initial training to keep them safe.

Great delivery, ITI! Your team is great to work with. Selecting your team for our pre-hire driver onboarding process was the right way to go.

Choosing Online vs. In-Person Driver Training

True, some types of training are best done face-to-face. You wouldn’t put an inexperienced driver behind the wheel of a tandem without a check-ride first! But do you really need to bring new hires onsite to train them on your company benefits and fill out HR paperwork?

In-Person Driver Onboarding

Pros:
  • Make a connection with driver.
  • Test skills first-hand.
  • In-depth, hands-on training.
Cons:
  • Pay for driver’s time, food and lodging.
  • Manually enter driver’s training completion into system.
  • Pay to transport driver home.
  • Requires dedicated trainer(s).
Valuable and Expensive

Online Orientation

Pros:
  • Automatically assigned through your normal HR process by connecting to Sentix Pro LMS.
  • Driver completes paperwork, online orientation and training at home in a few hours.
  • All your systems are updated once training is completed.
Cons:
  • Best for knowledge courses, safety checks and regulatory training.
  • No such thing as a virtual check-ride. (Yet.)
