Mandatory Compliance Training Automation via PeopleSoft ELM

A large K–12 educational organization requires all employees to complete 10 mandatory compliance trainings annually, including Child Abuse and Mandated Reporter, Suicide Prevention and Response, Sexual Harassment and Discrimination, Bloodborne Pathogens, Cyberbullying, and Integrated Pest Management. Additional role-specific trainings—such as Injury and Illness Prevention and Opioid Antagonist Administration—are assigned to certain staff.

Ensuring full participation and compliance across thousands of employees is operationally intensive. Current notification and follow-up processes rely heavily on manual emails, phone calls, and spreadsheet tracking—resulting in administrative burden, delayed completions, and inconsistent reporting.

How It Works

Process Steps

1. Automated Multi-Channel Notifications

xSIGNAL sends an initial message through both email and Microsoft Teams, leveraging the employee’s preferred communication channel.

The message includes a direct link to the PeopleSoft ELM course registration page and contextual details about the required training.

2. Action Tracking and Response Monitoring

xSIGNAL tracks whether the employee has opened, acknowledged, or registered for the course via embedded action tracking.

If no registration is detected within the defined time window, xSIGNAL automatically schedules and sends follow-up notifications.

3. Escalation Workflow

After two missed reminders, xSIGNAL automatically escalates by sending a Teams message and email to the employee’s manager, summarizing outstanding training requirements.

The escalation is logged within xSIGNAL’s dashboard for compliance tracking and audit readiness.

4. Dynamic Reporting and Analytics

Real-time dashboards display engagement and completion metrics across all mandatory trainings.

HR and compliance teams can monitor registration rates, overdue counts, and escalation statuses without manual effort.
