Background
This global medical technology company has a presence in nearly every country and over 70,000 employees, the company faces the complex challenge of providing effective compliance training to a diverse and geographically dispersed workforce.
Through thoughtful customization, data-driven improvements, and a focus on right-sizing training, the company has significantly enhanced compliance while respecting employees' time and productivity.
Challenge
Committed to maximizing productivity and efficiency, the company sought to reduce the seat time of its annual compliance training programs, including its Code of Conduct, Global Standards for Interactions with Healthcare Professionals, and anti-corruption and anti-bribery training, from 45-50 minutes to 30 minutes or less.
Solution
In 2017, the company partnered with Learning Pool to leverage its Adaptive Compliance suite, enhancing the effectiveness of its compliance training program. This collaboration enabled the company to annually deploy its Code of Conduct course to all employees, and its Global Standards and anti-corruption courses to a targeted audience every 1.5 years. By customizing scenarios to specific functional areas and job responsibilities, the company ensures that each training session is relevant and impactful, directly addressing the unique challenges and risks faced by different teams.
The company's Ethics & Compliance Team places a strong emphasis on how training correlates with real-life situations. Each course is meticulously customized to align with the company's branding and specific risks, providing employees with a unique and engaging experience. Delivered in up to 19 languages, these courses are accessible to the company's diverse global workforce, ensuring consistent and comprehensive compliance training and awareness.
Analytics play a crucial role in the team’s strategy. The team analyzes training data to identify potential strengths and opportunities in their employees’ compliance knowledge. Responding to employee feedback about the length of training sessions, the team streamlined course durations to maximize efficiency without sacrificing content quality and actionable data. This data-driven approach ensures that training remains effective, relevant, and respectful of employees' time.
The company promotes a strong tone at the top by supporting business leaders with talk tracks, toolkits, and other materials on ethics topics. They understand the importance of communicating real-life examples to foster a culture of compliance and ethical behavior. A notable initiative is the eight-part “Speak Up, Listen Up” campaign, developed from training outcomes, risk assessments, and various metrics. This campaign uses business analytics, year-over-year training completion rates, and behavioral insights to drive course modifications and engagement.
Training outcomes are shared with managers as well as regional compliance associates, reinforcing the connection between business results and training effectiveness. In-person training is tailored locally based on regional risks and insights from online courses. This comprehensive approach ensures that the company's compliance training program is not only thorough and forward-thinking but also adaptable to the evolving needs of its global workforce.
