Use case

Retail & hospitality staff

Shift teams don't sit at laptops, and turnover means you onboard the same role several times a year. Runway keeps that training identical every time — on the device people actually have.

What makes shift onboarding different

Training happens between customers, not in a meeting room. The plan has to be short, checkable, and readable one-handed behind the counter.

How it's set up in Runway

  • One template per stationBarista, front of house, kitchen prep, closing duties.
  • Shadow shifts on the scheduleDay and date for each shift, plus who they're paired with.
  • Required reading kept tinyFood safety basics, POS steps, opening and closing checklists.
  • 30-day ramp-up goalsTickets per hour, solo close signed off, register count accurate.

Why managers stick with it

When the same role opens again, you reuse the template and hand out a join code — no retyping the training plan, and no guessing whether someone was ever shown the closing routine.

Run this plan in Runway

Save it as a role template once, then every future hire in that role starts with the same plan and their own progress view.
