Team Member Ready for Placement

Onboarding Training and Assessment

At Affordable Staff, we aim for each team member to possess a robust understanding of administrative tasks but also have a deep appreciation and comprehension of Australian business practices and cultural nuances, ensuring they are exceptionally well-prepared to support their clients effectively. While this training starts with real estate, the skills acquired provide a comprehensive overview of general admin competencies, ensuring that trainees are versatile and capable of supporting a wide range of administrative tasks.

Affordable Staff understands that residential tenancy agreements vary by state, our basic training covers general principles across different locations in Australia, and we emphasise the importance of client-specific training to address unique requirements.

Joe is equipped with specialised knowledge and skills tailored to the Australian real estate industry. Joe’s training began with an introduction to the fundamentals of real estate in Australia, including viewing videos and reading articles to understand the market’s nuances. Practical exercises like processing property management tasks like invoices, lease agreements, and routine inspections are central to the curriculum.

These exercises familiarise Joe with common real estate procedures and hone their data entry and organisational skills, which are crucial for maintaining accurate records and managing properties efficiently.

Affordable Staff Tools Training

Tools Training is an integral part of the General Admin training program, ensuring our team members gain proficiency in essential software used in day-to-day operations. Our team members were introduced to LastPass for password management, Outlook for email and calendar organisation, TechSmith for capturing and recording, Hubstaff for time tracking, Zoom and Teams for virtual communication, OneDrive for file management, and Trello for project management.

Each session combines theoretical instruction with practical, hands-on activities, allowing Joe to apply the learnings immediately. Joe is knowledgeable on how to securely manage passwords, organise and categorise emails, capture and share visual content, track work time and productivity, conduct and manage virtual meetings, handle cloud storage, and manage projects effectively.

Additionally, time permitting, Joe and all team members receive an overview of property management tools like Property Tree, Property Me, Console, DocHub, FileSmart, DocuSign, Adobe Acrobat, Console Gateway, 1Form, Inspection Manager, REST Professional, Palace, Maintenance Manager, Realworks, and CoreLogic.
