Onboard new starters

One of nine use cases for the Clarity Box, Windows desktop software for learning teams from Clarity Writers.

Go from a pile of induction documents to a storyboard the content owner can mark up, then put answers to new starters' questions inside the finished course.

You've been handed forty documents and a start date three weeks away. The Clarity Box takes on the reading and the first draft. Deciding what a new starter needs in week one stays with you.

A second problem arrives after launch. People sit an induction in their first days, when little of it applies yet. The questions come later, when someone needs the expenses form and can't remember which document mentioned it.

Read the pack

In Clarity Bank, use Connect a folder. You see the file names first and can clear anything out of date. Nothing is read until you press the button, and scans are read on your own computer.

Then ask questions and read the sources listed under From. That's how you catch the handbook saying one thing and the leave form another. Each question and the extracts picked to answer it go to your organisation's AI provider, and the bank stays on the computer.

Draft the storyboard

Tick the documents the course is written from, right click and choose Create storyboard. Clarity Create asks for a title, the audience, a duration and your objectives. Spend your time on the objectives, because a draft built on "understand the code of conduct" will read like the code of conduct.

Generate storyboard returns a slide by slide draft. Where the AI wrote from your documents, a Sources block quotes the passage, so checking a claim means reading two lines. Most of your editing will be cutting.

Get the manager's changes

Download the storyboard as a Word document. Your manager marks it up with Track Changes, comments or retyped sentences. Import feedback lists every change for you to keep or skip, and Revert undoes the whole import if you change your mind.

Add help to the finished course

Build the course in Rise, Storyline or Chameleon, attach it with Add SCORM and press Add a chatbot. It answers from the course and up to five PDF or Word reference documents, such as the handbook. Set its fallback message to name a real person for when it doesn't know, and turn on Support learners in distress for any induction that touches on conduct or wellbeing.

Online mode needs internet access in the LMS and a way to reach an AI. Each message sends course content and recent conversation to your proxy or provider.

What stays with you

Clarity Create doesn't build the course, and it can't tell you what can wait until month three. You write the objectives, edit the slides and approve the FAQ answers. Any bank passages you include travel inside the zip, where anyone who can open the course can read them. Test the course with a learner account before anyone new meets it.
