In most of the positions I have held not very many have had a formal orientation program - mostly you learn by the seat of your pants, so to say or through notes left by the previous admin (usually out of date anyway).  As far as meeting the rest of the team, I usually try to schedule 1/2 hour with each member to learn what they do during the first couple of weeks.

Only one company had an organization for the admins - they met on a monthly basis for 1 1/2 hour and had regular programs.  Once a year all the admins around the country met for a 2-day seminar - this gave everybody a chance to get to know the admins in the field and in the corporate office.  They also had an SVP as a sponsor to the organization.  You could either attend the meetings personally or by WebEx.  It seemed to work there but it was a very large corporation.
