Compliance in Learnster allows you to manage courses that require regular retakes and track compliance or certifications. It’s ideal for compliance training in areas like food safety, healthcare, or finance but works for any course requiring compliance tracking.
Choosing a Validity Period
When setting up a compliance course, you define the validity period—the duration for which learners remain compliant before needing to retake the course.
Learnster offers three validity options:
No Expiration: For training that doesn’t require renewal.
Compliance Period: For ongoing enrollments with personalized compliance schedules.
Fixed Period: For synchronized compliance with specific start and end dates.
Here’s how they differ and when to use them:
1. No Expiration
This option is for courses that don’t require renewal. Once completed, learners stay compliant indefinitely.
When to Use:
When compliance doesn’t require renewal.
Example:
A safety training for summer workers that doesn’t require compliance beyond the summer season.
2. Compliance Period
The validity option Compliance period is based on each learner’s individual completion date, making it ideal for ongoing enrollments with personalized schedules.
When to Use:
When learners enroll and complete training at different times.
When you need a flexible, personalized compliance schedule.
For ongoing enrollments with different start dates for each individual learner.
Example:
A cybersecurity course that all new employees complete during their first week of employment, with compliance lasting 365 days from the completion date.
3. Fixed period
With Fixed period all learners follow the same compliance schedule based on specific start and end dates, with the course resetting for each new period.
When to Use:
When everyone needs to complete the training within the same time frame.
When you require clear start and end dates for compliance tracking.
Example:
An Anti-Money Laundering (AML) training that runs from January to June, resets, and requires completion again from July to December.
