How is it delivered?
Our Grievance Process course is delivered through our SHINE eLearning platform. This solves the problem of compliance record keeping by recording the completion of courses and making them available for you to view and manage electronically. No more struggling to find training records should you have a visit from the enforcing agency or an audit.
Candidates can access the course through a web browser on a desktop or laptop PC. We can also provide the course to be integrated into a SCORM compliant LMS.
The training can be completed at the employee’s own pace by bookmarking and recording progress and returning to the training at a later time. In delivering the training in this way, the normal cost of training is reduced, whilst still achieving the desired awareness and compliance with the organisation’s legal responsibilities.
At the end of the training, the trainee will complete an assessment.
