But Charlie he has a sense that leading a hybrid team will be different from both of his previous experiences.

​#MeToo: How Do We Raise the Bar on Harassment Training?

9/14/2021

 
Picture
Not long after the #MeToo movement started a few years back, several of the large law firms we regularly work with asked us to develop an on-demand sexual harassment training series designed specifically for law firms.   

Why training just for law firms?

As it turns out, no industry is immune—and that includes law. Several reports have been issued in recent years ​that highlight the continued prevalence

Do we need a Learning Management System (LMS) to deliver and track on-demand compliance courses?

9/7/2021

 
Picture
​Many of our law firm and corporate clients have been hard at work creating on-demand compliance courses to train people at their client organizations. Our government clients have been busy creating compliance courses to train their own personnel.

8/3/2021

 
Picture
The word “interactive” has been showing up a lot lately in a variety of compliance and credit-eligible training requirements. For example, New York State, New York City, California, Illinois, and Connecticut, have all passed laws in the past few years that specifically require sexual harassment prevention and awareness training for all employees. And many of these jurisdictions specifically require that the training be interactive. 

Why is that?
