Business Performance Group Releases Highly Anticipated Harassment Prevention E-learning Courses

Online, March 29, 2010 (Newswire.com) - Des Moines, IA - Business Performance Group announces the release of two new e-learning courses on harassment prevention: Sexual Harassment in the Workplace: It's Not Enough to Know Better and Without Regard to Race, Religion, Sex, National Origin, Age, or Disability. The courses, which are available in employee and managerial versions, can be previewed online at no charge and are designed to provide the education, guidance, and authority to help employees and managers prevent, recognize, and report harassment and discrimination incidents. Training participants will learn skills to identify and prevent harassment and discrimination in the workplace, as well as how to act when they recognize inappropriate behavior.

"Often times it's the subtle comments, innuendos, and stereotypes that are part of everyday workplace conversations that put organizations at risk," says Juliane Ross, president of Vivid Edge Productions and a content expert. "Employees are an organization's first line of defense against discrimination and harassment. These courses offer affordable content designed to provide legal and regulatory compliance for employees in all 50 states - including California AB 1825*."

Business Performance Group's online courseware features personal stories in full-motion video that illustrate various types of harassment in the workplace. Additional features include interactive exercises, post-testing, and a comprehensive policy acceptance tool that requires participants to accept the company's harassment and discrimination policies before completing the courses. Administrators can deliver and track the training with ease on any SCORM compliant Learning Management System (LMS) or the courses can be deployed on Business Performance Group's LMS.
