MOD Training House Rules - Signed
Topic
This document covers the policies, practices, and conduct that a trainee must abide by
during the entire duration of training. MyOutdesk’s Training Program is the last phase of
the application process.
Mission
The aim is to have quality, world-class Virtual Professionals as a product of the rigorous
application process, and ensure each one is guided accordingly in aligning themselves
with the company’s standards. This also aims to foster credibility and trust with our clients
and business partners, by conveying the organization’s mission in executing its strategies.
Purpose
The purpose is to keep our trainees guided with the house rules of the training program.
The training schedule runs from Mondays through Fridays, 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM (PST)
with Saturdays and Sundays off. Moreover, it will run from 11:00 AM to 8:00 PM (PST)
during Daylight Savings Time with the same days off.
The end of the 3-day Fastrack Program marks the end of the application and screening
process.
1.2 MOD University
MOD University is a comprehensive knowledge base, containing the necessary basic
foundations of Real Estate.
Access to MOD University is granted only after the completion of HR requirements and/or
a successful client placement. All passers of the Fastrack Program are allotted thirty (30)
business days to complete the MOD University course, and garner a minimum average of
75%.
This is a self-study course which allows the trainee to freely pace his or herself with
completing the course, and its corresponding exams, moreover, be accountable with the
results.
MOD University completion must never interfere with Client Interview schedules and
commitments, and remains a secondary priority to Client Interviews. It must only be taken
during free time, and never during actual client tasks and schedules.
Successful completion of the course is one of the prerequisites for Placement Incentive
eligibility.
MOD University trainees may directly message their Fastrack trainer for assistance.
Through each 8-hour training shift, trainees are expected to be logged in to Zoom App
using their Personal Computers. Logging in through smartphones and tablets throughout
the entire shift without the knowledge of any of the trainers is strictly prohibited.
Creating chatrooms and engaging in private conversations outside of the official training
room, on Zoom App or any other platform is strictly disallowed.
1.4 MyTimeIn and Active Track
During the Fastrack phase, trainees are given access to MTI, otherwise known as
MyTimeIn. MTI serves as a MOD proprietary timekeeping site and an essential tool used
to monitor the trainee’s attendance and online presence.
To operate, MTI requires a MOD proprietary software to operate called MyTimeIn Active
Track.
Both MTI and Active Track are required to be up and running for the entire duration of
each 8- hour training shift. Any attempts to disable, tamper, or manipulate both MTI and
Active Track is a grave offense, and may result in immediate dismissal and blacklisting of
the trainee from the Training Program.
Both MTI and Active Track’s functions are disabled and inoperable outside of the
training period.
Trainees are required to have 100% attendance for the entirety of the Training Program,
including Client Interview/s, and other MOD-required schedules.
These are not only requirements to pass training, but also prerequisites to Placement
Incentive eligibility.
2.1. Tardiness
Trainees are required to log in at any time within thirty (30) minutes prior to start of training.
This will allow enough opportunity to fix any unforeseen circumstances that might hinder
them from going online at the exact start time of training.
A trainee is expected to be online, active, and responsive at the actual start of shift,
otherwise, he/she will be tagged as late despite logging in on time in Active Track.
A trainee is only given two (2) instances of tardiness. Beyond this, he/she will be re-
evaluated and the trainer has a discretion to allow the trainee to continue with training
based on the reason/s, or to ultimately decide to discontinue the training.
2.2 Overbreak
A trainee is given a quick breather to attend to personal needs, of which duration is
dependent on the availability of time and the load of discussions and/or activities. Also,
the same is allowed to take a personal time-off that is good for one (1) hour which is
granted at any time within shift.
A trainee is responsible to come and report back on time. Two (2) instances of failure to
do so will warrant a decision by trainers to discontinue his/her training depending on the
gravity and the duration of tardiness.
No time adjustment is granted for inexcusable and unacceptable reason/s that caused the
overbreak and/or tardiness.
2.3 Absences
In the event that a trainee is unable to attend to any of the required schedules, their
trainer/s must be notified no less than two (2) hours prior to the schedule.
2.5 Reschedule
Requests for rescheduling of training start date is permitted, given the reason is
acceptable, such as family or personal emergency. Pertinent documents that support the
absence must be submitted to qualify for a batch transfer.
A maximum of two (2) reschedule requests within the next two (2) classes from the original
batch inclusion is allowed. Otherwise, the trainee is required to re-apply after ninety (90)
calendar days.
3. Productivity
Training is best approached with undivided attention. This will allow the trainee to focus
during discussions and activities which will result in spotless outputs and impressive scores.
This will certainly elevate the chances of passing training.
It goes without saying that opening and surfing pornographic websites, playing both offline
or online games, or watching movies or TV series within training hours is a reflection of
character unbecoming of a MOD Virtual Professional.
Engaging in any of these activities is a significant factor to whether a trainee will continue
on, or be dismissed from the Training Program.
3.2 Sleep
Transitioning to a night shift requires oneself to be committed and disciplined to attain
ample rest. Getting a full 8-hour sleep is suggested during the day, for both the mind and
body to function at optimum levels while on the night shift.
Please note sleeping on-shift is a violation of service terms and could result in termination
from the Training Program, as well as the Independent Contractor Agreement.
During the entirety of the training period, trainees are expected to work only at the approved
location, using the approved gadgets, devices, and equipment.
4. Dishonesty
Engaging in any of these activities is a significant factor to whether a trainee will continue
on, or be dismissed from the Training Program.
4.1 Cheating
Opening of notes, asking help from a classmate, referrer, or housemate, during activities
and/or exams, is a sign of cheating.
