subject: Three Simple Strategies For Compliance E-learning [print this page] We all operate in an increasingly regulated world and need to both train staff in relevant regulations and demonstrate compliance. This creates major challenges for training and compliance managers to develop deliver and monitor compliance training.
Compliance E-Learning provides an opportunity to develop context based specific training, to deliver it cost-effectively and quickly; and importantly to track the learners understanding. Being able to apply what they have learned is essential in compliance training. Generic off-the-shelf training can work in some circumstances. But it is important that staff should have an understanding of how to apply what they have learned at their own workplace and appreciate the consequences for their organization.
Compliance E-Learning is increasingly seen as a key element in compliance training. This is because the training is often mandatory and needs to reach a wide audience and there is a legal requirement to keep detailed records of the training.
There are several benefits of Compliance E-Learning which provides a consistent learning program for all the staff. It also provides a low cost delivery mechanism to reach large number of audiences. It delivers an engaging design approach which ensures the staff to recognize the consequences of non-compliance and how to transfer learning at the workplace and also an approach which can be incorporated as part of a wider blend of learning interventions.
While there are many ways to design your e-learning courses, todays three simple strategies will help you to meet your certification needs and get your people back to work.
1. Create a Pre-Assessment
Put the certification test at the beginning of your course. Make it a very inclusive review so that you may truly identify their knowledge and level of skills. If the user passes the test, he jumps to the next level. If the user doesnt pass, then you have to direct him to the track where he can get remedial training and additional assistance.
2. Empower the User
The first idea is to create the assessment up front and then direct the user based on the assessment result. Instead of just starting with the assessment, give the user a choice. When it comes to Compliance E-Learning courses, many people like to go through the course content to get a sense of whats in it.
3. Break the Content into Sections
At the beginning of each section, give the user a choice to assess or go through the content. At the end of all of the sections, do a final assessment.
However, if you do a lot of certification or annual refresher training, these three approaches should come in handy.
