To make a business case for investing in compliance training, you need to identify how the training will either improve or protect your bottom line. A written business case for compliance training should include:
The cost, including investment of time and resources. The risks of NOT training, including data about costs of litigation, potential settlement and judgment amounts. The benefits, covering changes in behavior to improve morale, and ultimately the potential impact on profitability. The Timeline: How long will this training take to deliver improvements? How long will it take for these improvements to pay for the cost?
Remember - frequently the most significant benefit of effective compliance training is litigation avoidance, but those savings can be truly significant.
Regulatory compliance is costly and increasingly complex. Staying in compliance can be expensive and time consuming, especially for small organizations. In fact, smaller organizations spend on average $2,800 more per employee on compliance than larger organizations. Understanding the business impact and benefits for compliance training is a critical component of your business case.
Online Compliance Training saves organizations money by:
Efficiently satisfying mandatory training requirements. Easily manage, track and report on completed training. Influencing employee behavior to reduce legal violations. Ensuring that a consistent message is delivered to all employees. Providing a "good faith" defense in the event of litigation. Reducing organizational/managerial liability. Reducing fines/penalties/negative PR impact.
