Your First 90 Days at Work

The first three months in a new job shape how your manager and colleagues see you, often for years. They are also the months when most new employees are on probation, and when small mistakes, such as arriving late, ignoring a rule or not asking for help, can cost you the job. Many young people lose their first job not because they cannot do the work, but because nobody explained the unwritten rules. This course walks you through your first day and induction, explains probation and what your employer must do during it, sets out the workplace rules, disciplinary codes and health and safety duties you must know, shows you how to build a reputation for reliability and respect, and teaches you how to ask good questions, handle mistakes and use feedback to grow. The course is fully online and self-paced. Each lesson has a short activity in your workbook. You finish with a practical task in which you build your own 90-day plan, and a final assessment, and you receive a MetaCo Certificate of Completion that you can add to your CV.
