With Certitude, organizations can simplify complex workflows, certify communications and assess knowledge with the ability to create custom content for many uses – all of which aim to improve business processes and reduce risk. Benefits include:
- Alleviates cumbersome workflows and processes: Streamlines the distribution of documents, policies and standard operating procedures with support for more than 40 languages.
- Maintains records to demonstrate employee acknowledgment and compliance: Captures employee attestation with electronic signatures and maintains auditable tracking and reporting to ensure compliance with regulatory requirements.
- Gain visibility into possible risk areas before they become an issue: Evaluation capabilities (i.e., questionnaires, surveys, disclosures, etc.) can help organizations monitor and evaluate employee sentiment, knowledge and understanding on a given risk topic for immediate visibility into sensitive areas, with the ability to adapt quickly and respond to emerging risks.
- Conduct critical, just-in-time training: Custom content creation capabilities help organizations leverage existing documents and combine them with custom assessments to rapidly create formal custom training courses.
