New hires belong on the jobNot in seminar rooms

Your best people are training new hires instead of working. We flip that around: with Elephant you can build onboarding content in minutes, train on mobile, and answer questions on the spot. All without tying up your team leads as full-time trainers for weeks.

Onboarding today? Stacks of PDFs, blocked team leads, and new hires that take months to ramp up.

Classroom training is usually only delivered in the local language. Awkward when your team speaks four. Onboarding plans sit as PDFs on SharePoint, but the open rate leaves a lot to be desired.

Add to that team leads who answer the same questions for weeks instead of doing their actual job. And new employees who still aren't fully productive months in. Not because they don't want to be — because the materials aren't good enough and classroom training is the only channel.

Up to 20% quit within the first six months.

Not because of the job. Because of the onboarding.

What changes when onboarding stops getting stuck in seminar rooms

30 %

Faster onboarding. In weeks instead of months, because the theory part is done on the go while the practical training is already underway.

40 %

Less in-person training. Team leads can focus on more important tasks again, while the rest runs on mobile devices.

20 %

lower early turnover. Poor onboarding is the most common cause, while effective onboarding is the easiest solution.

Based on Elephant customer data and SHRM statistics. Your concrete ROI depends on your current situation.

Three things that change onboarding at your company immediately.

Build training in minutes, not weeks

Your SOPs, handbooks and product docs already exist. They're just in the wrong format. The AI Coursebuilder turns them into interactive courses. In 95+ languages. Simple enough that any team lead can build content themselves. No instructional designer required.

Learn on mobile while practice is already running

Your team should be on the job, not stuck in a seminar room. Structured learning paths on the phone walk new hires through onboarding at their own pace, in their own language. Offline included. Classroom training drops dramatically. Gamification makes sure courses actually get finished.

Get answers to questions right away, without tying up team leads

New hires have questions. Senior people don't have the time. The AI Assistant delivers instant answers from your company knowledge — source-grounded, in 95+ languages, 24/7. Less waiting around, more independence in the field.

Everything you need for fast onboarding

Onboarding content in minutes. Not weeks with Articulate & co.

Ellie automatically transforms your existing documents (SOPs, manuals, PowerPoint presentations, websites) into interactive, gamified courses. In over 95 languages. No instructional designer needed, no weeks-long lead time. The content bottleneck is gone.

AI Coursebuilder with documents and Generate-with-AI feature

Learn where the work happens. Not where seminars happen.

What to do today, this week, this month. A clear structure instead of a loose collection of PDFs. Mobile, offline-capable, available in any language. All while new employees are already being put to work in the field. Learning series, badges, and knowledge prompts ensure that courses are actually completed.

9,000 questions a month. Zero calls to the team lead.

Manage in-person training. Without Excel chaos.

Not everything can be done digitally. Machine training, safety inspections, hands-on exercises: some things simply have to take place in person. Elephant manages these training sessions as well: schedules, participants, attendance, and certificates. Digital and in-person training all in one place.

Live training calendar with three sessions and an attendee list

New hire in the system. Onboarding starts automatically.

No manual setup of new employees, nothing forgotten. New hires in your HR system get auto-assigned to the right learning path. Mandatory training runs as interactive courses with automatic certificates. Compliant before day one.

How Enpal scaled onboarding

Enpal installation team on the job

"Thanks to Elephant we can pass on knowledge in real time, break through language barriers and give our team members exactly the information they need for their daily work — wherever they are."

Manuel Lippert, Managing Director · Enpal Montage GmbH

Enpal Montage GmbH: 30% faster ramp-up — for multilingual field service teams.

Kontext

Field service & installation, fast-growing, multilingual teams across the EU. Scalable onboarding infrastructure was no longer optional — it was a necessity.

Herausforderung

Ramp-up took weeks, classroom training was German-only — for teams that speak many languages. Traditional training formats couldn't keep up with the growth pace.
