Why Train on This Topic?
The Law Requires Training!
The amended Federal Sentencing Guidelines:
- Emphasize that simply distributing a written compliance and ethics policy to employees is not legally sufficient
- Make periodic compliance and ethics training a requirement for all employees
Course Overview
Most employees do not knowingly violate a law or policy. Instead, many ethical violations occur when an employee is faced with a difficult choice that requires the employee to balance competing interests where the right choice is not clear. Instead of simply preaching to employees the importance of ethical behavior, effective training uses interactive audio-visual scenarios to address the "gray areas" and provides employees practical skills for identifying and resolving these ethical dilemmas.
