What HR Compliance Training do you need? Find out with our assessment.
A question that often arises for HR professionals is, “What employee training do we need to be compliant?” The EEOC, labor authorities, fair employment agencies, state laws... who has time to keep up? We understand that even experienced HR professionals have difficulty aligning employees with the right training for compliance. So, we're here to make it simple.
This assessment consists of a series of yes/no questions designed to identify the best training courses to meet compliance requirements and identify best practices for all levels of your organization. When you are finished with the assessment, you will get a printable report listing recommended HSI training courses for your managers and employees.
