Overview/Description
The purpose of this course is to familiarize your employees with your company's Code of Conduct and any other related policies that define your expectations for their conduct as an employee of your company. This course is designed to serve as a customizable template for that purpose. Topics can be removed or modified to suit your company's requirements. Within the course template, each topic features a link to an external document containing a generic Code of Conduct policy statement and sample questions about that policy statement. We recommend that you replace these generic items with your company's own Code of Conduct policy statements and modify the questions and supporting content accordingly. SkillSoft's Custom Development Solution Team is available to perform the modifications to fit your company's specific requirements. This course was developed with subject matter support provided by The Beale Firm, PLLC.
