Getting familiar with their job, becoming comfortable with new colleagues and basically just learning the ropes as far as the company goes are all part and parcel of the onboarding experience. One thing that is important to keep in mind during this process is the fact that everyone learns differently; no two employees are the same and, therefore, the ways they absorb new material and adapt to professional circumstances will likely be different. What does this mean within the context of their job and consequently how they learn to acclimate to their new role? It means that for some individuals there could be a learning curve involved.

In some instances, a new hire might settle into a position within just a couple of days. Some studies suggest that on average it could take two-to-three months for people to get comfortable with a new role. While for others, the employee learning curve can present a bit of a struggle and so it can take even longer. The key is to communicate with your new employee.

[RELATED: How To Onboard Remote Employees >>](https://blog.axcethr.com/how-to-onboard-remote-employees) ## **How To Get an Employee Up To Speed While Understanding Their Learning Curve** One of the first things that you can do to facilitate someone’s transition into a new role, is to figure out what type of learner they are. There are a few different ways to test for learning styles and aptitudes. For example, you could administer a [Myers-Briggs assessment](https://www.myersbriggs.org/my-mbti-personality-type/mbti-basics/). There are a number of such assessments available that will give you deeper insights into the person’s strengths and preferred learning styles.

That said, it makes sense for you to foster a team spirit and in this way, help to make the employee feel more comfortable in their position. You might talk to the employee about sharing with fellow team members the ways in which they tend to learn best. - ### **Develop a Training Program Specific To Them** One size no longer “fits all” when it comes to training new hires. What previously might have worked for one person, may not work for a new employee. You have to be able to adapt your onboarding/training process so as to more effectively accommodate the learning styles and abilities of the new person. Such a program might address the areas in which the employee may lack some experience/knowledge and by the same token, play to the strengths of this employee to build confidence in the early stages of their tenure. - ### **Consistently Provide Feedback** When addressing an employee's learning curve, it is so crucial that you let that employee know exactly how they are performing.
