FAQ

Common questions

Can I run respectful workplace & anti-bullying training online?

The course itself is self-paced and online, and the live deck lets you add a live session. Whether online delivery meets your local rules depends on the law that applies to you, so check the rules that apply to you or ask your own counsel.

How often is this training needed?

At hire + every 2 years (best practice).

Who needs this training?

All employees (team-lead tips as callouts).

What records should I keep?

Record completion in your own LMS or record system, so you can show who finished the course and when. Check the retention period that applies to you in the rules that apply to you.

Can I edit the content?

Yes, everything. Change the wording, swap scenarios for ones from your workplace, add your logo, or remove parts that don't apply. Keep anything your own law requires you to cover.
