Compliance requirements can originate in many different places from a variety of triggers: Federal and state regulatory agencies can impose regulations on organizations; internally driven initiatives can take many forms and can impact the entire organization; and external organizations can mandate processes and procedures that must be followed. Adding to the burden, the management of compliance requirements can be expensive and time consuming. While compliance can be tracked manually, manual tracking is often time consuming and error prone. Being out of compliance can be very expensive due to fines and lawsuits. This whitepaper explains how a Learning Management Compliance Solution can help manage an organization’s compliance requirements.

Companies spend millions each year conducting mandatory training. Whether triggered by an audit, the risk of non-compliance, bad PR, or internal training requirements, achieving compliance can be difficult and costly. Enforcing compliance often meets with resistance. Many organizations waste millions of dollars keeping up with training requirements and reporting training data. Even with all of the effort, manual processes typically have gaps and increase an organization’s risk of non-compliance. Furthermore, organizations often uncover redundant processes that manage separate compliance needs. These could be leveraged with better planning. So how can your organization reduce the costs and compliance risks of mandatory training? Here are 10 steps for developing an enterprise-wide compliance training strategy.

InFocus: The Virtual Classroom - By Caryl Bohach
In addition to automating course dissemination, the learning management system (LMS) provides data on the number of employees attending courses, and the length of time it takes those employees to complete each course. “We’re transitioning to building a more robust structure that will show, by associate, their required courses, ones they’ve completed and to what proficiency,” says Zahn. “We want to provide district managers with a snapshot of their region.” In the future, Toys ‘R’ Us plans to use the learning management system to trigger annual registration and better monitor OSHA compliance and gaps, which are being tracked through paper. Zahn is optimistic about the system’s continued success: “We’ve had a lot of positive feedback from managers and associates who say the system improves product knowledge and customer-service skills.”

Thinking of safety - Computer-based training makes safer ammo handling - By Tim Mahon
Ammunition technicians in Iraq are accessing the system to bring themselves up to date with current handling and safety techniques while deployed, rather than having to travel to education centers. They also can tailor their learning to suit their individual needs while remaining within the certification system. “The great thing, from our point of view, is we can deliver this training at the cost of $20 per student,” Scott said. And that should mean a lot less undesirable bangs for the expenditure of a few bucks.

After three years of trying and two failed attempts at making the case for a learning management system, how one learning professional convinced her organization to evolve from data and content management to viewing learning and performance management as a strategic advantage.
Presented by:
Marguerite Samms
Director, Education Services
MultiCare Health System
Marguerite Samms, Director of Education Services for MultiCare, believed that an LMS would complete the alignment of systems for high performance. These systems included workforce development, performance management, operational effectiveness, and learning, which when aligned can offer measurable impact on sustained organizational performance.
Marguerite will show you how she built a successful business case for learning management from a 360 degree perspective: developing an internal support network, understanding what really matters to upper management, and getting past that first (or fifth) "No".
Topics covered:
- Dealing with the internal decision-making processBeing aware of team dynamics and how they can work to your advantageHelping IT and other departments realize "what's in it for them" in order to gain their commitmentAnticipating and avoiding setbacks (and how to re-open the conversation after they occur)

Topics we’ll cover include:
- Understanding the role of the Code of Conduct
- Legal requirements that mandate ethics & Code of Conduct training
- Strategies for successful ethics & Code of Conduct training, as well as how to avoid the most common "legal landmines"

On June 20, 2006, California’s Fair Employment and Housing Commission (FEHC) adopted new regulations for AB 1825 - the state’s harassment training law. AB 1825 requires California employers with 50 or more employees to provide all supervisors with harassment training every two years. While these regulations are not final, they are the benchmark by which employers should be assessing and planning training efforts.
The regulations are extensive and detailed. They have created groundbreaking, stringent requirements for all forms of training, especially e-learning. To be compliant with AB 1825, it is essential to understand the new regulations.
These regulations are expected to heavily influence harassment training standards outside of California. They will also influence broader compliance training mandates, such as the ethics training required for all employers under the Federal Sentencing Guidelines.
This interactive webcast features AB 1825’s author, Sarah Reyes, as well as Shanti Atkins, Esq., President & CEO of ELT. As part of the Special Advisory Committee to the FEHC, ELT has been instrumental in helping to draft the AB 1825 regulations.
You will learn:
- The essential requirements of AB 1825The details of the new FEHC regulations
- How to avoid the most common and costly legal landmines associated with AB 1825 compliance.
