Epic announces ‘LearningNow’, a brand-new series of events facilitated by Towards Maturity
Epic and Towards Maturity team up to host the first in the series of three ‘LearningNow’ events. Each free event will invite attendees to explore and tackle key L&D issues of the day during an interactive and practical workshop. These events offer attendees the opportunity to connect, contribute and learn by aligning benchmark findings, workplace process and best practice. The first of the three events, ‘Why won’t they comply?’, will take place on the 1st May in London.
It’s no secret that compliance training has a poor reputation. In 2012, 87 per cent of the organisations investing in learning technologies were looking to improve compliance, but only 53 per cent felt they were successful (according the 2012 Towards Maturity Benchmark Study). ‘Why won’t they comply?’ will offer attendees the opportunity to share their common frustrations and come away with ideas and solutions to inject new life into compliance training.
Facilitated by Laura Overton, Managing Director of Towards Maturity, attendees will participate in interactive discussions that examine the real issues faced when developing compliance content, before gaining practical insight on how to employ learning technologies to reinvigorate compliance training.
“‘LearningNow: why won’t they comply?’ will address one of the toughest challenges facing the e-learning community – implementing mandatory learning so that it makes a real difference to business performance,” said Laura Overton.
By the end of the session, attendees will learn how to transform compliance training from a ‘ticking the box’ exercise to content that will inspire behaviour change.
“We are thrilled to be working with Epic, who are, one of our Founding Ambassadors on the LearningNow workshop series. As a benchmarking practice, we are keen to help others uncover good ideas and apply them in their own organisation,” said Overton. “LearningNow will provide a great way for learning professionals to learn together and develop practical solutions for today’s challenges. “
Why won’t they comply? is on the 1st May from 9:00 to 14:00 at One Drummond Gate, Victoria, London. It’s free to attend but places are limited. To register for this event, visit the website, or send a message to contactus@epiclearninggroup.com.
