Testimonials | "I liked the structure of the online course, especially the way I was able to go back and forth between the information and the assessment. The progressive assessment meant I could keep on top of everything." | "Knowing individual issues is not enough for an effective system. I need to know what the trends look like. NAVEX Global’s case management software allows us to identify trends early, so we can immediately address workplace issues." | "The fact that LRN is constantly looking for ways to be visionary in advancing the E&C agenda from an awareness and learning standpoint is really exciting to us, because you never want a partner that just stands still." | "We had compliments from our employees on the training. They all said it was well done and on brand. Compliments don’t come easy.” | "Skillsoft has enabled us to identify the best topics and modes of training, and then deliver that content through an easy-to-use and comprehensive program that sets GE – and our employees – up for success." | "Get Inclusive has been prompt at addressing questions and provides regular feedback about progress within the training modules. We love working with them!" | "Netflix employees obviously appreciate good storytelling, and good video production, which are a few of the key reasons why Emtrain is such a good partner for us.” | "I wanted to let you know how great my experience with Traliant has been. From the very first phone call to the execution of the final product, we could not be more thrilled with the results." |

Still not sure which online compliance training vendor is right for you?
If price is your primary decision making criteria Emtrain and Traliant offer the most competitive pricing, while still offering a high quality online training experience.
If you need global compliance training content, NAVEX GLOBAL and SAI Global have the largest catalogs. EVERFI and Skillsoft also offer robust global course catalogs.
If you don’t have your own LMS, all of the listed vendors offer basic LMS functionality to deliver training to your employees and track completion records. Skillsoft also owns SumTotal which is a complete LMS solution, and also offers several other deployment options depending on customer needs.
If you want to build your own custom course, LRN, EVERFI, Skillsoft and NAVEX have built bespoke content for companies like Kodak and Google. Custom courses can be expensive, but entrusting a ground-up course build to an expert can be a great way to ensure a high quality (and compliant) final product.

You should choose Skillsoft:
