Preparation

Carry out a risk assessment to understand, identify and manage risks within your organization.

Publish policies for handling these risks. Send out a survey to the workforce to ascertain current compliance knowledge.

Method

Create compliance modules detailing risks specific for each team or job role. These can include employee health & safety, environmental, regulatory, and esafety.
Add video or storyboard real-life scenarios for more effective immersion. This allows employees to use skills and knowledge quickly.
Branching scenarios allow learners to make decisions and see the impact of their choices.
Make the modules engaging by including interactive elements such as quizzes and surveys.
To motivate the learner, add gamification components such as leaderboards, badges and rewards.
Where appropriate, require online assessment.
Set up tracking to show an employee’s progress.
Schedule reminders when it’s time to refresh a module.

Serve and enjoy!

By making compliance training relevant and engaging, more employees should take up the modules, particularly when automatic reminders let them know when more learning is required.
