The team has been working on our brand new onboarding process. Starting with Microsoft and 4D history, our onboarding goal incorporates the progress chart, analytics, and pop quiz.
This new addition to our team will add visibility not only to onboarding but also provide insight into how new employees are doing. It’ll save us a ton of man hours and eliminate those presentations that still haunt us. Plus, it can be self-paced, which is an added employee benefit.
Not only is this a great way to optimize our internal resources when bringing on new team members, but it is also a great demo for prospects interested in their own onboarding solutions.
Pretty cool! This is a huge accomplishment for our teams and should make future onboarding of employees consistent and effortless. Be sure to stay tuned for the official roll out!

Hi teams,
We have a Monday.com update, on a Monday. Has that joke gotten old yet? After ironing out some kinks in our Monday boards, we have decided that customer notes and email communications will all be put into the “updates” box (pic below). To update via email, click “Write updates via email” and copy the email address that populates. Then, you can send Monday.com the chain of emails you choose. Side note: Monday.com does not auto track emails. (Thank goodness!) See pic below for clarification.
Andrea also gave us an update from the Content Team:
The Content Team continues to get organized using Monday.com! We’ve added Production tracking steps that will make it easier for us to ensure we’ve provided all the necessary documentation to our customers for their jobs, and that will keep our workflow on track and our content on time. Our current focus has been on the Autodesk Fusion 360 CAM Certification content but work for Baker Baynes and NCCER are also underway.
Also, please keep note that documentation for Monday.com best practices is on its way!

Have you noticed any suspicious emails in your inbox lately? You’re not alone.
Every day, cyber criminals send 3 billion emails designed to look like they’re from companies or people you know – just like this one.
Don’t take the bait! To spot a phishing email, watch out for these 7 red flags:
- Unfamiliar or generic greetings
- Inconsistent or unusual sender information
- Spelling and grammar mistakes
- Links that don’t match legitimate URLs
- Suspicious attachments
- Alarming content demanding urgent action
- Requests for login credentials, payment information, or sensitive data
If you see something, say something.

We checked in with the content team this week to find out what professional projects they’ve been working on and for who! We’ve all been hearing chatter about our partners Baker Baynes, and obviously the crowd favorite- Autodesk. So here is what is officially up:
Autodesk: The team is currently working on Fusion certification prep, which includes 4 separate projects within the main project. Turning has been completed, Simulation is being worked on currently, and 3-axis and 5 axis/multi axis will follow.
Baker Baynes: Currently working on Scan to BIM for Buildings. It will cover the entire process from point cloud geometry extraction to finalizing geometries in Revit.
NCCER: NCCER stands for National Center for Construction, and they are a nonprofit organization that develops standardized construction and maintenance curriculum. We recently finished a project for training on accessing and working within NCCER’s Testing System and we are beginning work on a new project for their Registry System.
Revizto: We are starting a certification prep project with Revizto that will focus on the criteria needed to obtain Revizto Certification.
Worldsview: Worldsview is another South African company, and we are currently working on a project that will include TopCon, Vertical Construction with GTL 1000 & integration with Autodesk and vertical construction design with BIM360.
Lots of big things are happening with our partners and customers.
Stay tuned to catch up on more professional projects soon.

We’re always showing our customers how we can help them onboard new employees better, faster, and cheaper – now we’re doing it for ourselves!
When our latest additions to the team started, we recorded all our onboarding sessions. Now, we’re using our own accelerated capture process to create a new digital resource repository for future hires.
Switching to a more digitized onboarding process will not only make future new hires more productive faster, but it’ll also save some serious man hours. And, because anyone will be able to revisit that content in the future, none of our team’s valuable knowledge will be lost over time.
A BIG THANK YOU to Nick Brown, Sabine, Andrea, and Ash for volunteering their down time to help accomplish this!

Currently paired with BIM 360 content, the Browser Extension suggests lessons to customers as they work. Plus, it gives them all of the power of the portal without leaving their program. But, the most amazing thing about this offering is that it can work with any browser-based program. The sky is the limit!
Kelly has been demoing Assist for all of our customers, and the feedback has been very positive.
You can download Assist in the Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge extension store.
Thank you to everyone involved in developing and testing – we are so excited to see where this cool technology takes us!
