This post clears that up

The past participle form is “told,” used after have/has/had and in passive patterns like “was told.” You’ll meet this verb in class, on tests, and in day-to-day writing: tell.

In most modern writing, the closed form “onboarding” is the standard, while “on-boarding” shows up mainly in older text or special brand styles. You’ve seen both spellings. Maybe your manager typed “on-boarding” in a policy doc. Then your HR portal says “onboarding.” Now you’re stuck wondering which one is correct, and whether the “wrong” choice

Slide citations label the source beside the claim, then point to a brief reference list so anyone can track each fact, quote, and image. Slides move fast.
