HRM 200 Milestone One Guidelines and Rubric
Overview
You are a human resources generalist at a start-up company. As new business volume grows, the employer needs to add more talent to the organization. New employees are being added to all departments, including your own. As an HR generalist, you are part of the group that manages orientation for new employees. Your next new employee orientation session includes new human resources colleagues.
The new HR employees will be working in a distributed work design, either at the company site or 100% remote. You will need to give both sets of new employees the same basic information about your company, as well as information that is specific to their role as an HR generalist. To support this distributed workforce, you will create an orientation presentation that can be used either in person or in a remote setting.
Directions
In this milestone, you will create a PowerPoint presentation that you will use for the new HR employee orientation. Use the Project One New Hire Orientation Presentation Template provided in the What to Submit section. In addition, you will use the Project One Speaker Notes Template provided in the What to Submit section to record full speaker notes for your presentation. Alternatively, you may record a voice presentation onto your slides. You may find it useful to use the Project One Speaker Notes Template to draft your script prior to recording your audio.
