Tech Support Orientation List

Tech Support Orientation Checklist

When a new tech support worker is hired, there are several steps that need to be performed. It's tech support staff's job to make certain these steps are accomplished. The staff needs to determine an orientation schedule, and will need to arrange appointments with other staff members or interns who are responsible for parts of the orientation. Please orient new tech support orientation.
