7. Addressing mandatory training
Defining the challenge
• High priority and highly visible area of training
• Significant volumes and costs
• Considerable duplication – c. 700 items in the catalogue on
health and safety
• Complexity and variety of needs across businesses – ‘group-wide’
vs. ‘business-specific’
• Varying quality and format
• Opportunity to demonstrate change in approach to e-learning
• Ability to improve effectiveness of reporting
• Increased external scrutiny
@epictalk @towardsmaturity #LNcomply
8. Addressing mandatory training
Shaping a solution
• Engage all stakeholders
• Get commitment to overhaul approach and coordinate at group
level
• Agreed group-wide curricula and quarterly schedule
• Change model for training
• Utilise a diagnostic to focus effort on where it matters
• Increase pass rate requirement to 100%
• Prove effectiveness and value
@epictalk @towardsmaturity #LNcomply
9. Addressing mandatory training
Lessons learnt
• Make sure all key stakeholders engaged – Risk, HR, Policy Owners,
Control Functions
• Don’t underestimate effort of embedding new processes
• Ability to report is critical
• Get the governance right
• Ensure consistency
• Simpler for user = more complex behind the scenes
• Future – prove that saved time and transform more of curricula
