CCH and CourseAvenue Collaborate to Provide Customizable Human Resource Training for E-Learning
(RIVERWOODS AND WARRENVILLE, ILL., February 7, 2008) – CCH and CourseAvenue today announced the availability of the eComply for Human Resource Series of eLearning training courses. These crucial human resource training courses can be customized easily to meet an employer’s specific needs, and are written by industry experts at CCH, a part of Wolters Kluwer Law & Business, a leading provider of research products and software solutions in key specialty areas for legal and business professionals.
Employers everywhere have a responsibility to ensure they maintain a safe, fair and productive work environment. With eComply for Human Resources, employers provide their supervisors and employees guidance on correct practices in areas that include:
- Discrimination and Harassment Prevention;
- Sexual Harassment Prevention;
- Workplace Violence Prevention;
- E-Mail and Internet Use;
- Interviewing and Hiring;
- Discipline;
- Termination;
- Substance Abuse Prevention; and
- Managing Disability Leaves.
Additionally, providing managers and employees critical human resource training demonstrates a good faith effort on the part of the company to comply with labor laws and create a safe working environment for employees.
Through CourseAvenue’s hybrid development approach, CCH has been able to identify specific elements of the off-the-shelf courseware as consumer editable, allowing an organization to tailor that content to their individual needs. In addition to personalization such as course introductions by corporate executives and specific rules and regulations, organizations can also incorporate their own look and feel, complete with logo, color schemes and navigational elements, into the eLearning courseware through CourseAvenue’s Hybrid eLearning program.
“One of the biggest drawbacks for employers to deploying online human resource training is the inflexible and expensive methods of customizing content with their own policies and procedures,” said Joe Gorup, CEO of CourseAvenue. “CourseAvenue now allows the consumer to purchase training content with the ability to add customized content directly into the course.”
“CCH is excited to partner with CourseAvenue, a company at the forefront of eLearning innovation. Combining CCH’s authoritative information with CourseAvenue’s eLearning system creates the perfect training solution for human resource professionals. Training has never been easier,” said Kristen Kaplan, Wolters Kluwer Law & Business product manager.
This series covers nine topics designed for managers and supervisors and four specifically written for employee training. The eLearning courses in the eComply for Human Resources series will be available through CCH and CourseAvenue distributors.
