There are two parts to this. Induction at the start of the project (Project
Kickoff), and induction of new team members mid-stream of project execution.

At the start of the project:
Pre-work:
1. Prepare project objective, goals, high-level scope and high-level schedule
2. Prepare a project plan composing all of the above
3. Identify project stakeholders, their roles and responsibilities
4. Identify project team members, their roles and responsibilities

Induction:
1. Introductions on the team - who's who, what they bring to the table etc.
2. Go over the project documentation - starting with the Project Charter
3. Discuss about immediate and long term risks, seek feedback
4. Outline plan and seek objective feedback
5. Answer any questions team members may have, provide any support/additional
documentation/material for them to come up to speed

Project Kickoff
-------------------------------

Mid-stream:
1. Introduction of the new team member to the team, articulate purpose, role,
responsibility, and strengths of the new team member
2. Provide any available and relevant project documents (Project Charter, Scope,
Requirements, Design) to help the new team member to come up to speed
3. Answer any questions he/she might have
4. Provide team contacts and who's who to answer any specific SME questions the
new team member might have.
