Within <em>computer-based orientation programs</em>, new employees undergo orientation without <em>in-person</em><em> </em>communication with a company’s representative. They receive information included in the orientation program via a computer, or other technological means (for example, via an App).
Explanation:
Traditionally, in the framework of in-person orientation programs, a person is assigned to guide a new employee through the orientation. This approach implies face-to-face communication between a new employee and an assigned individual(s) from the company about the matters included in the orientation (even if it is via phone- or video calls).
<u>Computer-based orientation</u> (or online orientation) on the contrary excluded face-to-face communication of this kind and relies on computer tools to reach the goal of orientation.
