What action should be included in the education plan regarding content areas?

Consulting with managers to review content is essential in the education plan because it ensures that the training provided is relevant, accurate, and addresses the specific needs of different departments within the organization. Managers are often more familiar with the day-to-day operations and challenges that their teams face, and their insights can help tailor the education content to bridge any compliance gaps effectively.

Furthermore, managers can provide feedback on content effectiveness and suggest areas that may require more focus or additional resources. This collaborative approach fosters a culture of compliance and ensures that staff not only receive the necessary training but also understand its practical application in their roles.

While conducting annual mandatory testing can assess knowledge retention, standardizing content across departments may not always account for the unique circumstances of each area. Requiring external approval of materials, while potentially ensuring quality, might slow down the process and limit more agile responses to training needs. Therefore, engaging managers in the review process supports a more responsive and relevant compliance education strategy.
