Best Practices for Updating Compliance Courses
Sep 28, 2015

Hello!
I need advice on how to handle requests for compliance course updates. I have found that our SMEs typically don't find out about these updates until 1 or 2 months before the course needs to go live. These updates often include additional modules to be added, as well as changes to voiceover, etc. The SMEs contact us to make the updates, and by that time, our schedule is fully booked with other courses. How does your team make time to update compliance courses while also working on other projects? Any advice would be appreciated!
Thank you!

Hi Alyssa,
It can be challenging for sure. Here are a couple things we've done in the past;. not all of them may apply to your particular kind of compliance training, but hopefully you will find some value.
Hope this helps!
Hi Bob, this is incredibly helpful! Thank you so much for the advice!
Bob, as usual, is right on. Along with his modularity suggestion, I also try to think ahead as I set content to music. Questions like, "Hmmm, this is content that could very well change, how bout I set it as on-screen text instead of audio? That way I can switch it out quickly." As time goes on, you'll get a feel for what might change. As a general rule, don't build courses that will be a bear to update. Of course there are reasons to go against this rule.
Love the music suggestion.... consider that stolen! :-)
