Compliance training, Code of Conduct and Ethics learning programs sit at the core of most learning initiatives in global organisations, especially when they operate in strict legal and regulatory parameters, eg. in the pharmaceuticals, technology or financial sectors. However, this training is often felt to be 'relentless' and 'disengaging', creating risk and alienating your most valuable resource: your people.
The good news is, it doesn't have to be this way...
Often, your Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) have outstanding knowledge, but their communication style isn’t going to pause scrolling thumbs.
Our scriptwriters and storytellers have tried-and-tested methods for extracting the expertise that your SMEs have and spinning it into attention-grabbing gold: content that helps you seize attention, hold it, and deliver vivid messages that stick - all brought to life through captivating media design.
Habit design is all about environments and real-world context. It’s through contextualising your learning programs that you will generate results that go beyond engagement.
Think: your organisation's story (motivation); your learners' real-life experiences (simulations, roleplay, feedback, personalisation); your strategic goals (business-specific risks); your learning culture (how do your people typically respond to this type of content?)
For many clients, we start with learning consultancy, to address these elements of compliance performance in a way that makes for transformative compliance learning.

Tesco's compliance and ethics leaders had an innovative vision for upgrading the compliance training experience. Using campaigning techniques and engaging bespoke content, Tesco's results speak for themselves.
Training modules allocated to 9,500 users.
We wanted to change the delivery of our compliance learning from set-piece modules to something nimbler that was better targeted to different teams and could be completed without breaking their run of work. The Little Learning Leaps campaign has delivered just that and the feedback from colleagues has been excellent.

It goes without saying that considering ROI when designing learning is important. But how can we prove where that return is coming from or, better yet, pinpoint the exact behaviour we know will see the biggest ROI? We explore just that in this blog post.
In this blog post, we explore three key indicators that the problem you're trying to solve requires a strategic approach, rather than simply delivering more learning.
In episode two of The Unforgettable Learning Podcast, we discuss rethinking behaviour change, human-centred cyber security, and creating training that acknowledges human inconsistency with Ceri Jones, Lead Cyber Security Specialist at the LEGO Group.
