A Little About a Lot

I have been many things in my life - from fruit-picker, through postman, delivery driver, barman, professional actor, Office Manager, Trainer, IT Training Manager, Head of Technology Assisted Learning and latterly, Learning Consultant with the CIPD and Accreditation Mentor with the LPI. Now an independent Professional Mentor, I have learned, and now know, 'a little about a lot, and a lot about very little'. I hope this blog will be of interest and stimulate some further conversations.

Completion is Mandatory

I've just completed a short e-learning course, about which I was informed by email on Monday of this week.

"Completion is mandatory for all... and needs to be completed by Friday 18th October."

Classic e-learning: a short video of someone holding a document and talking about it as they turn the pages; links to some graphic files and policies; several statements confirming I get it, and a 'Declaration' that I know how to follow the process and apply it.

I've gone through it twice. I'm not sure I really understand where to find the links in the real systems, nor how to follow the process when required to so do.

But it's Friday. So, I've clicked the Declaration button anyway.

I've complied.

No-one will check.

And if and when I need to do it for real, I'll ask someone.

Just like everyone else who has ever had to complete an e-learning compliance course.
