A generic induction PDF gets skimmed and forgotten. Tell us about your context — the size of the university, who your students are, how you teach — and we'll assemble an onboarding checklist that fits it, grouped by when to do each thing. Built for schools welcoming new or sessional teaching staff.

Induction is a semester, not a day. The research on new-staff retention is clear: belonging and early wins matter more than policy PDFs. This spaces the load — essentials first, the deeper craft once they've found their feet — and points to the free NTLSN tools that do each job. Adapt to your own school's specifics.
