What’s trending in learning? HR Compliance in February 2025

Welcome to this month's "What's trending in learning?" where this month, we'll look at the critical role of HR compliance. As regulations and best practices continue to change, staying informed and up-to-date is more important than ever.

In this edition, we’ll highlight just a sliver of courses from the Go1 library on HR compliance topics, introduce new content providers, and share resources.

1. Respect@Work by BSI (Interactive, 15 mins)c

The Anti-Discrimination and Human Rights Legislation Amendment (Respect at Work) came into effect in December 2022. The Act places a new positive duty on employers and persons conducting a business or undertaking (PCBUs) to eliminate sexual harassment and other discriminatory conduct occurring within their workplaces.

This mobile micro-learning experience covers information about the Act and the steps organizations should be taking now to ensure compliance with the Act.

2. HIPAA by Emtrain (Interactive, 1 hr)

This course helps employees understand HIPAA's complex requirements, how HIPAA can impact your organization and clients, and shows them simple steps and concepts that they can use to safeguard HIPAA-protected information.

3. Human Trafficking Prevention by EasyLlama (30 mins)

There's no single defining profile or characteristic to identify victims of human trafficking, so awareness is key. This course will help define human trafficking, dispel some common myths, and provide signs to look out for. Employees will learn what actions they can take and where they can report a suspected victim of human trafficking. They'll also find out why certain industries are more prone to its occurrence than others.

Note: This course is compliant to meet CA standards and requirements. For Florida, users should take "Human Trafficking Prevention, Hospitality."

4. Equal Employment Opportunity by Allara Global (20 mins)

Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) is an important concept for all employers, employees and job applicants. It’s a way of protecting people at all stages of the employment cycle, and ensures that everyone has equal access to employment opportunities based solely on merit.

Everyone has a responsibility and role to play when it comes to EEO and workplace diversity. Not just because it is required by law, but because everybody has the right to be treated fairly and with respect in seeking and maintaining employment.

5. Freedom of Information Act by Skillshub (5mins)

There are two ways in which the Freedom of Information Acts provides access to public information and this course will cover both of them thoroughly. Learn who and what information is included, and how you can make a request.

This microlearning course comes with additional materials to help you implement the learning, including three key actions to take, a blueprint for self-coaching, and a simple infographic to remember the main points.
