Onboarding in 2022:
What has Changed, and What Remains Critically Important
Integration of Onboarding Technology
with Other Systems
As men oned, having systems integrated when connec ng onboarding to other people processes is
cri cal. When looking at the most common Learning and Development L&D approaches used during
onboarding, experien al (on-the-job) learning and peer-to-peer learning were the most common.
However, as the workplace has shi ed to having many more remote or hybrid workers, those styles of
learning require technology that may not have existed in the organiza on before.
