It is sent to your entire connected network, including contractor employees, and each person’s progress is tracked individually. Use Account Inductions for high-level onboarding, such as introducing SiteConnect and explaining how your organisation expects people to use it. ### Site Inductions  A Site Induction contains information specific to a particular site. Create it within **Forms** and select **Site Induction** as the form type. You can configure a Site Induction to be assigned automatically the first time a worker signs in to the site. ### Site Noticeboard  A Site Noticeboard is a single page of site-specific information shown every time someone signs in, regardless of the sign-in method used. The worker must read and acknowledge the noticeboard, including the site-specific risks and controls. You can check who has and has not acknowledged these risks in the **Time Spent Onsite Report** in the Web Portal.   ### How they differ  |   | **Account Induction** | **Site Induction** | **Site Noticeboard** | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Where it lives | **'Inductions'** in the left navigation | **'Forms'**, toggled as 'Form Type' > 'Site Inductions' | The site's own '**Noticeboard'** content | | Structure | One or more Modules, each with content and Questions | Build flexible, dynamic Site Inductions using customisable form logic and more than 10 field types. | A single block of content, no modules or questions | | Assigned to | Everyone in your connected network automatically | Assign Site Inductions manually to users or configure them to be assigned automatically when someone signs in to a site for the first time. | Anyone signing in will be shown the Noticeboard Content. | | Tracked as | Not Started, In Progress or Completed, per person | Assigned, In Progress, Submitted, Approved | Site Noticeboard Acknowledged in Time Spent Onsite Records | | Scored | No. Answers are not recorded, nor marked against a pass mark | Partial. Answers are recorded per user, and an audit trail is reportable.  | No. There are no questions to answer, only content to acknowledge | | Available at a kiosk | No — the kiosk cannot show or complete Account Inductions | No — the kiosk cannot show or complete Site Inductions | Partial — the site risks are shown upon kiosk sign-in but the site noticeboard is not. | ### Making everyone redo an Induction An Account Induction has no expiry and no automatic renewal. The only way to make everyone redo it is the **Reset induction statuses** toggle, which resets the account induction for everyone at once and can't be limited to individual people. A Site Induction can be cloned and reassigned to a group of contractor users or a new site.  ### Next recommended step To build a company-wide induction, start with How to Create an Account Induction. -
