New Starter InducTION checklist

Hi everyone,

At the Australian Media and Communications Authority (ACMA), we are currently refreshing our induction process. As part of this are looking to develop a new starter checklist which will include all things that new starters should be across within their first week i.e.  where the toilets are, the fire stairs, the social club, what the IT helpdesk number is etc.

I am sure this information is detailed in all your inductions in some format or another, but I am specifically looking for anyone who may be able to share a specific checklist if you have one.

Please email me at madeleine.cameron@acma.gov.au

Thank you in advance.

Conference attendance guidelines

Hi everyone,

I am needing to develop a set of guidelines/policies around conference attendance for example who can attend, how often, how many from a department to ensure inclusivity and fairness is the approach. I am hoping that someone has already developed these policies/guidelines and would be willing to share.

Thank you,

Supporting ONGOING AND NON-ONGOING EMPLOYEES in Formal Study Programs

The National Archives is interested in connecting with any agencies that have supported the formal study of ongoing or non-ongoing employees. For background, the National Archives is partnering with a university to design a 12 month Entry Level Cadetship Program that includes completion of a Graduate Certificate. The National Archives is interested in understanding how agencies have supported these arrangements without employees being placed in financial hardship (for upfront course fees), and how agencies ensured the investment was not lost through non-completion or early exit from the agency. We are conscious that an upfront payment / later reimbursement model may make the program less accessible from an inclusion and diversity perspective.

Please email Rony Seaton at professionaldevelopment@naa.gov.au
