Recent Releases

This month, we are thrilled to announce the release of two new courses in the Health and Safety category:

Defensive Driving for Buses (Coach, Shuttle, Large Passenger Type): This course is designed to give drivers of buses, shuttles, and large passenger vehicles a well-rounded look at the key concepts associated with defensive driving and provide tips and guidelines to prepare them for the everyday challenges on the road. Drivers will be better equipped to navigate various driving conditions and better ensure the safety of all onboard.

Active Shooter on Campus 2.0: People are finding themselves more at risk than ever before to being vulnerable to active shooter situations on campus, at a business, or in a public space.  The ability to react quickly could save your life, but you need to be adequately prepared. In this course, you'll learn about active shooter events, how to prepare for them, and what to do if it happens. The 2.0 version of this course includes expert guidance videos and an interactive exercise based on an active shooter scenario.

Upcoming Releases

In the next 90 days, we have some exciting new courses lined up in the Legal category:

EU General Data Protection Regulation course:

Our new course on the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is designed for employees of corporate and non-profit organizations who share a duty to safeguard individuals' personal data. This course outlines the purpose and principles of the GDPR, explains the obligations of controllers and processors, and discusses the rights of data subjects.
