Summary


We have covered one of the most powerful Moodle modules and implemented several Moodle features that will help facilitate compliance training. Take a moment to review these one more time before moving on to the next chapter.

Specifically, in this chapter, we have covered:

  • How the Moodle lesson module works and how it might be used to deliver compliance training

  • How to create groups and groupings in Moodle to manage all the different levels of training required

  • How to set up completion tracking and completion status reports to let employees and human resource managers know where individuals stand in their training

As you know, training is not just important for compliance and risk management; it is also just as important in continuing professional development.
