Compliance training shouldn’t feel like a yearly ritual where everyone clicks “next”, downloads a certificate, and quietly returns to business as usual. Yet in a lot of organisations—especially those with lean HR/compliance teams, high turnover, contractors and casuals, and busy managers—that’s exactly what happens. The risk isn’t that people “didn’t
