Use case

Your onboarding is one person, repeating themselves, forever.

Most induction knowledge lives in a handbook nobody reads and in the head of whoever has been there longest. Both are already documented well enough to build from: the handbook is a document, and the walkthrough is a recording waiting to be made.

The problem

Why this particular course is painful

It does not scale past one person

The same walkthrough delivered live to every new starter is expensive, inconsistent, and stops entirely when that person is on leave or leaves.

The handbook is not training

A 60-page induction pack emailed on day one is a compliance artefact, not an onboarding experience. It gets skimmed once and never opened again.

Every department wants its own version

Finance, operations and the plant floor need different inductions, so what should be one project becomes six, and five of them never get built.

What changes

How Kre8AI handles it

Record the walkthrough once

Have the person who always does the induction record it as they normally would. Kre8AI transcribes the audio or video and builds a structured course from it, so their explanation outlives their availability.

Build variants from one spine

Duplicate a course and regenerate the modules that differ. A departmental variant becomes an afternoon of adjustment rather than a new project.

Find out whether it landed

Scored assessments and completion tracking report to your LMS, which turns onboarding from something you delivered into something you can show was understood.

South African context

The rules you are actually training against

We are not lawyers and this is not legal advice. Check your obligations with someone who is.

Induction as a legal obligation

The Occupational Health and Safety Act requires that employees are informed about hazards and safe working procedures. Where induction carries that content, the record of what was delivered and who completed it matters as much as the delivery.

Skills development reporting

Structured induction that produces completion records contributes to the training evidence you already have to report, rather than sitting outside it as untracked informal delivery.

High-turnover and seasonal intake

Where you onboard in waves, the cost of live delivery scales linearly with headcount and the quality drifts. A course does not.

Multi-site operations

Standalone HTML export means a site with poor connectivity can run the induction locally, and a contractor without an LMS account can still complete it.

Straight answers

Questions we get about this

We do not have written material, just people who know things.

Then record them. A conversation is a source document once it is transcribed, and Kre8AI transcribes MP4, MOV, MP3 and WAV automatically. In practice this is the fastest way to capture knowledge that was never written down.

Can new starters do it before their first day?

That depends on your LMS and your policy on pre-employment access, not on Kre8AI. The standalone HTML export is sometimes used for exactly this.

How do we keep it current as the company changes?

Regenerate the affected modules from the updated source rather than rebuilding the course. Editing and outlining cost no credits, so keeping a course current is cheap.

Can it include a presenter?

Yes. You can generate presenter avatar video inside a course, or use real footage of your own people. Avatar video costs 5 credits per video, which is worth knowing before you plan one per slide.
