Preparing To Relaunch Employee Courses
Plan and relaunch your training with confidence
Have you already implemented ComplyEQ and are preparing to relaunch employee training? Whether you’re refreshing annual requirements or rolling out updated content, a thoughtful relaunch helps ensure high participation and clear expectations.
To prepare for a successful relaunch, focus on four key steps:
- Identify your learner population
- Determine the appropriate content
- Create a communication strategy
- Develop a launch timeline
1. Identify the population
Before relaunching a course, decide who should receive the training. Common populations include:
- New employees
- Returning employees
- Supervisors
- Specific departments or teams
Clearly defining your population ensures assignments reach the right learners and supports accurate reporting.
2. Determine the content
Once you’ve identified your populations, review your contract to confirm which courses you have access to and which are appropriate for each group.
Some courses have role‑specific versions to meet compliance requirements. For example, harassment prevention training is typically delivered as:
- Preventing Harassment and Discrimination in the Workplace – Supervisors
- Preventing Harassment and Discrimination in the Workplace – Non‑Supervisors
Be sure learners receive the version that aligns with their role and any applicable state requirements.
3. Create a communication strategy
Promoting your training plan is critical—not just for learners, but also for internal stakeholders.
Start by defining your goals:
- What are you trying to accomplish with this training?
- How will you measure success?
Your goals may differ for:
- New hires completing onboarding training
- Returning employees completing recurring training
Develop your messaging
- Tailor messages to each audience segment
- Clearly explain next steps and expectations
- Include due dates and any consequences for non‑completion
Choose your communication channels
Use the channels your learners engage with most, such as:
- HRIS or internal portals
- Team meetings or manager reminders
Document your plan and prepare messages in advance so you’re ready to launch.
4. Develop a launch timeline
The final step is defining when training will be assigned and due.
When setting your timeline, consider:
- Other training happening at your organization
- Regulatory or internal deadlines
- Time needed for learners to complete the course
A realistic timeline helps avoid overload and improves completion rates.
