Compliance training may not be the most exciting course in your L&D portfolio. (Ok, it definitely isn\u2019t the most exciting course in your portfolio.) But it’s one of the most important. And it\u2019s this awkward combination that makes it a challenge: How do you persuade your employees to engage with a training program they\u2019ve already decided is going to be dull?<\/em><\/p>\n

Your compliance training announcement email\u2019s a good place to start.<\/p>\n

To help kickstart your comms, we\u2019ve got a compliance training email template<\/strong> all prepped and ready to go, along with some useful do’s and don’ts.<\/p>\n

    What to include in an “Invitation to compliance training” email<\/h2>\n

    Your compliance training email needs to give your learners the means and motivation to engage. Cue our “4 Ws” checklist:<\/p>\n

    1. \u201cWho\u201d<\/h3>\n

    Centralizing your compliance training announcements so they all come from your HR manager provides consistency and continuity. But this blanket approach doesn\u2019t always maximize impact. Or, demonstrate relevance or authority. Often, it’s a good idea to further drill down and match the type of training with your acknowledged business expert or lead<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

    Yes, it makes sense for your HR manager to send a training announcement email about a sexual harassment<\/a><\/strong> or diversity course. But a compliance course in cybersecurity<\/strong><\/a>, or a module on social networking code of conduct? Use your IT and Marketing managers instead.<\/p>\n

    2. \u201cWhy\u201d<\/h3>\n

    Most compliance training is mandatory. So, like it or not, your employees will have to complete it. But that doesn\u2019t mean they\u2019ll have learned from it. To do that, they need to engage in their training.<\/p>\n

    And this is where your compliance training email template comes in.<\/p>\n

    Many of your learners will see compliance training as an exercise in ticking boxes<\/strong><\/a>. Gently challenge their perceptions by focusing on why compliance training matters to them and to the business. Bring its meaning to life by sharing examples of success. And be specific about the difference it will make on an individual and company level.<\/p>\n

    Of course, there may also be legal requirements for delivering your compliance training<\/a>. In which case, use the training announcement email to explain this and share all the necessary information.<\/p>\n

    3. \u201cWhat\u201d<\/h3>\n

    We\u2019ve looked at motivation. Now it\u2019s time to tick off the means. What practical information do your learners need to know to access and complete their training?<\/p>\n

    If it\u2019s a standard or regular compliance training course<\/strong><\/a>, the following details should be enough. For example:<\/p>\n
