Making Compliance Training Meaningful (cont.)
Increase Motivation - The primary catalyst to your compliance program can be injected through your training design.
Ensure that the behaviors that require compliance are built into core values, learning objectives, behavior reproduction
activities, and accountabilities after training. Find the balance between positive and negative reinforcement, and teach them
to be proactive first and reactive when necessary.
Make it Relevant - Keep the nature of the training materials relevant and up-to-date. Using the language of the
organization and relatable work examples will ensure that the learners will understand and absorb the material. Additionally,
incorporate proper amount of information relative to the timeframe and learning format, so that the learner maximizes their
experience.
Accountability - Build in the competency of social responsibility into every role in your organization. Make
compliance a part of your employees performance evaluation and ensure that the lessons learned during training
stretch well beyond the session itself. Transfer the learning into annual learning goals and reward those who exhibit
positive behaviors as appropriate.
By taking into consideration your organizational culture and your employees' learning needs, they will come away from
the training with something more valuable than knowing what not to do. With the proper incentives put in place, your
employees will voluntarily participate in compliance training and elicit desirable behaviors afterword more efficiently
and effectively.
