Ceridian Launches: Essentials Organizational Readiness Toolkit for Dayforce Human Capital Management

Comprehensive Online Courses, Tools & Templates


MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA--(Marketwired - June 23, 2014) - Ceridian announces the launch of the Essentials Organization Readiness Toolkit that includes online courses, tools and templates to prepare an organization - and all involved users, at every level - to successfully deploy Dayforce Human Capital Management and achieve maximum return on investment. Course modules discuss best practices for preparing for change and how to effectively leverage the content of the Essentials Org Readiness program. Essentials Org Readiness is easy to use, providing a blueprint of recommended activities by project phase.

"In the midst of new software deployment, organizational readiness activities are often overlooked, which can result in ineffective training and poor user adoption," says Gord MacDonald, vice president of education, Ceridian. "Essentials Org Readiness Toolkit outlines the process and activities that businesses require to ensure that all users are ready to leverage Dayforce HCM. The Essentials Org Readiness program offers customers a pragmatic and effective way to manage organization readiness for their HCM deployment."

"Whether it is time to upgrade an existing technology or rip and replace with a new one, change management is critical for adoption," says Lisa Rowan, IDC Research vice president, HR and talent management. "Without the proper transition, companies will not be able to realize the full potential return on investing in the new tools."

Essentials Organization Readiness Toolkit features include:

  • Online videos - Offer introductory "day in the life" training based on the employee's role. The videos are short and can be easily accessed well in advance of the "go-live" date.
  • Org Champion videos - Explain the importance of Org Readiness and demonstrate the Org Champion's role through best practices.
  • Org Readiness Tools and Templates - Resources that make it easy for the Org Readiness Champion to create and deploy an effective program. The toolkit contains project plan templates, checklists and sample communications, sorted by project phase.
  • Training Plan Template - A detailed template that makes it easy for organizations to plan the development and delivery of user training.
