Compliance Training

Compliance matters, for the simple reason that the regulatory framework which is set in place establishes the authority of your company. It helps to protect data, prevent security breaches and avoid serious penalties, bankruptcy or criminal prosecution. If that isn't a good incentive to comply, then I don't know what is. Truth be told, it isn't enough to set industry standards. They also need to be transferred upon the employees. To do this effectively you need a perfectly working tool which engages its employees in a fun and lighthearted manner. After which all information is retained. That retention is worth its weight in gold.

To evaluate your existing compliance training program, try these 5 tips: Make sure your training is up to date, conduct mock audits, quiz employees to check retention, survey employees about the appropriateness of the training, and perform a risk analysis.
