NEW YORK (3/10/2021) – LRN Corporation, a pioneer in the ethics and compliance (E&C) space, has launched Ethics Essentials, a new offering designed to help companies effectively meet their E&C training challenges.
LRN’s Ethics Essentials provides companies with high quality E&C education and software. Packaged for a frictionless and fast rollout of a world-class compliance program, Ethics Essentials places minimal demands on internal resources.
In developing Ethics Essentials, LRN analyzed E&C data from 286 companies and 8.1 million course completions. The result is an E&C solution designed to give businesses the ability to easily meet regulatory requirements and reduce risk while leading with ethical principles and promoting a culture of compliance within their organizations.
“For many companies, particularly those with small ethics and compliance teams, deploying a highly effective E&C program has long been a challenge,” said Matt Plass, Global Head of Segments at LRN. “Until now, they’ve been faced with lengthy implementation times, and overly complex content configurations. We’ve looked at the data and met with many of our existing partners to develop a packaged solution that simplifies the development and delivery of a truly impactful E&C program.”
LRN‘s Ethics Essentials provides a data-driven selection of nine critical ethics and compliance courses, tailored to provide regional and language relevance. All include additional learning campaigns assets – such as videos, gaming challenges, and infographics – to aid with knowledge retention and raise E&C awareness.
The Ethics Essentials courses feature:
- Code of Conduct: a critical course that allows a choice of topics to align with an organization’s code.
- Anti-Harassment: a comprehensive course to meet requirements for U.S. Federal and U.S. States including CA, NY, ME, CT, IL, DE, as well as the UK, India, and Canada.
- Seven foundational courses: Anti-Bribery, Anti-Trust, Cyber Security, Conflicts of Interest, Data Privacy, Ethical Workplace, GDPR, Trade Compliance, and Workplace Diversity.
- Translations into Chinese, English, French, German, Japanese, Portuguese, Spanish, Russian, Polish, and Dutch. Other languages available on demand.
- Customizations: Options for incorporating branding, policy, and hotline information.
“Too often, E&C training is outdated and boring, resulting in low employee engagement and high levels of dissatisfaction. Most training is designed to teach definitions – and fails to result in retention and application of knowledge,” said Marie Burke, Chief Content Officer at LRN. “Instead, E&C education – regardless of company size or budget – should be engaging, have a modern look, address ‘grey areas,’ and be interactive. I’m so thrilled that we can put the best E&C education in the market in front of a new audience.”
In addition to educational content, Ethics Essentials provides access to a powerful SaaS platform, Catalyst. It can be used in conjunction with an existing learning management system (LMS) or as a comprehensive, standalone LMS for launching, managing, automating, and measuring the success of an E&C program.
The LRN Catalyst SaaS platform provides:
- Customized employee learning site: an intuitive platform that is mobile ready, section 508 and WCAG accessible, custom-branded, and scalable.
- Program Management: simple course deployment, automated assignments, employee communications, and integrated data.
- Detailed data analytics: capability to measure program performance, track completions, spot risk areas, understand learner interactions, and report on program effectiveness.
