Orientation Information
Helping to develop the best workforce, VCH Orientation establishes employee culture, provides information necessary to begin a career at VCH, and facilitates a connection to resources. Here's how it works!
Getting started at VCH
Part 1: VCH Orientation Online
VCH Orientation Online contains mandatory content for new employees. All new hires should do this component, regardless of worksite or role (unless they are a re-hire who completed it in the last 18 months). Staff should allow 4-hours for completion of all sections, and it can be completed remotely (from home). New hires are provided the link in their welcome package from VCH Recruitment.
Part 2: VCH Regional Orientation
This portion of VCH Orientation prepares new employees for their role within the broader context of the organization. Portions of it can be completed virtually and remotely (from home), and can be anywhere from 4 hours to 3 days depending on the new hire's role. Regional Orientation may include in-person onsite labs and classes.
New hires should be registered by their unit manager, educator, or a delegated administrator for the sessions applicable to their site and role using the orientation registration system. After they're signed up, the new hire will receive an email with instructions, and all the links they'll need to get started, from do-not-reply@roar.vchclinicaleducation.ca or VCHOrientation@vch.ca. These sessions are generally not for students, or for VCH employees who have been away from work for less than 18 months, unless they are changing roles.
Part 3: Information Technology & Systems Training (if applicable)
This training may not be applicable to all new hires. For more information, visit the Clinical Computer Systems page (internal myVCH link).
Part 4. Unit/Program/Department Level Orientation
Content covered at this stage is based on individual learning needs at the unit/department level. Information is provided to new hires by the unit leaders.
After all 4 parts are completed as applicable, new employees may need to complete other online modules and/or in-person training as per their educator/manager.
IMPORTANT: to complete this online and virtual content, all new hires need to have a VCH Employee LearningHub account. Please refer to LearningHub FAQ for instructions.
