Refresher Courses

Refresher training is the centerpiece of almost every ongoing education program selected by Global Compliance's clients.  Global Compliance's Brightline Learning Division creates entirely new content each year for its Preventing Workplace Harassment and Workplace Ethics courses.  While this is a significant endeavor and one that none of our competitors undertake, we believe strongly that:

(i) periodic training is not only required under the law but is the most effective way to drive desired behavior, and

(ii) requiring employees to retake the same training that they completed previously actually undermines an employer's efforts to create an ethical and compliant work environment

Our clients agree and are excited not to have to change providers every year or two simply in order to offer fresh content (working through the selection and procurement processes takes a substantial investment of resources, and transitioning between hosting technologies and record keeping systems can create logistical difficulties).  Further, our past courses provide a substantial library of assets that clients can draw upon to tailor their training efforts to meet specific needs.

Global Compliance's refresher training for Preventing Workplace Harassment is significantly shorter than the initial course (typically running 30-40 minutes), and thus allows employers to reinforce key principles without taking employees off task for an inordinate amount of time.  The modular nature of Global Compliance's Workplace Ethics library gives employers remarkable flexibility in how they approach ongoing education-they can provide an entirely new full-length course made up of selected modules (based on the employer's specific needs or desired emphasis), or they can craft a refresher sequence that provides a series of shorter training experiences spread over the entire year.  For example, an employer could choose to roll out 10 to 15 minutes (2 to 3 modules) worth of online training each quarter, or could deliver a single module every month.  Indeed, there is growing momentum in training circles for such "short form" training, not only because it is less disruptive to the organization's daily work but also because there is evidence that small doses of reinforcement taken frequently has a greater long-term impact than heavier doses taken less frequently.  Global Compliance works with the client to develop and implement the periodic training plan that best meets their needs.
