Compliance training courses for employees
Non-compliance is not a one-off risk. It is a daily exposure. The organisations that manage it best are the ones that have trained every employee, not just the compliance team. Access eLearning courses give your organisation CPD-accredited compliance training across governance, risk, and compliance (GRC), updated as legislation and regulation changes.
- Seven bundles covering food safety, workplace essentials, financial services, cyber security, and employment rights
- Over 100 courses available
- CPD-accredited
Our market-leading GRC eLearning is accredited, assured and backed by our learning partners.
Compliance training that covers every obligation your organisation faces
Designed to fit around busy schedules. Accessible on any device.
The difference between done and understood
Most compliance training fails before the next incident. Employees click through, pass the assessment, and forget what they learned within a week. Access Learning's GRC courses use scenario-based learning and short, focused modules to build knowledge that stays. When a real situation arises, your people know what to do.
Compliance knowledge for every role
Compliance training for employees and managers applies across your entire workforce. From the employee completing a data protection module to the manager responsible for risk assessments and incident reporting, the bundles give every role the specific knowledge it needs to operate within the law. Corporate compliance training that covers the whole organisation, not just the teams closest to the risk.
Your full compliance needs covered, without the patchwork of providers
Courses are built around the specific obligations your organisation faces: food safety law, workplace health and safety, data protection, financial services regulation, cyber security frameworks, and employment rights. Each bundle maps to the legislation that governs how organisations operate.
Every area updated when the rules change
When Consumer Duty expectations shift, when employment law reforms, when food safety guidance gets revised, the courses are updated to reflect it. Your people are trained against current requirements, not a version of the rules that no longer applies.
Built to fit into a working day, not disrupt it
Rolling out compliance training across a whole organisation takes time that could be spent on other work. Access Learning's GRC courses are short enough to complete between tasks, assignable by role, and available on any device. Your compliance manager can deploy training across the whole workforce without it becoming a project.
Compliance training counts for more than just the tick box
Every course carries CPD accreditation. For employees in regulated roles or professional membership schemes, completing a compliance module also counts towards their verifiable CPD hours.

- UK GDPR and Data Protection Act 2018
- Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and associated regulations

What our customers say
"We work with colleagues across the organisation, from customer engagement, paralegal teams, support functions, and solicitors—everyone is incredibly busy with their day‑to‑day work. Expecting them to complete eLearning courses that take one to two hours isn’t always practical, so I’m focused on giving them time back wherever possible."
Our previous eLearning courses weren’t smart, and they were not enjoyable, so we had to spread them out. With Access the modules are shorter, sweeter, and interactive. Now we can ask our people to complete 3 or 4 modules in a day. And because they all have the same look and feel, it doesn’t feel like 3 or 4 separate learnings. It works a lot better and that’s how we’ve been able to change the way we run our inductions
Access Learning allows us to reinforce the statement to our employees that we have invested in them, as we now have access to a variety of engaging learning courses, which are readily available to support them with their training and career development opportunities – and it is really easy to use.
Your questions answered
What is GRC training?
GRC training gives employees the knowledge to operate within legal boundaries, understand governance structures, and manage risk in their day-to-day roles. Where standard compliance training focuses on specific laws and policies, GRC training also covers how an organisation makes decisions and identifies risk. Access Learning's GRC courses span governance, compliance, environmental, and social topics across multiple sectors, all CPD-accredited.
What's the difference between governance and compliance?
Governance sets the standards an organisation holds itself to. Compliance is the act of meeting them, along with any external laws and regulations that apply. GRC training addresses both, giving employees the knowledge to understand the framework and operate within it.
What are the benefits of compliance training?
Compliance training helps employees understand and adhere to relevant laws, regulations, and industry standards, reducing the risk of legal repercussions and protecting your organisation's reputation. It also creates a verifiable record that training took place: the evidence needed if a regulator, auditor, or employment tribunal asks.
Who needs compliance eLearning?
Any UK organisation with employees has compliance training obligations. The specific requirements vary by sector and role. Food businesses must provide compliance training for staff on food safety law, all employers must cover data protection and employment legislation, and regulated financial services firms have additional obligations to follow. Access Learning's GRC bundles are designed to cover the full range of obligations across sectors.
Can I manage compliance training through a learning management system?
Access LMS Evo lets compliance managers assign training by role, track completion across the organisation, and pull audit-ready reports without manual chasing. Courses are available through Access LMS Evo directly, or via SCORM files for use with your own learning management system. See our learning management software page for more information.
Can compliance training be delivered in a classroom or online virtual session?
Our courses support classroom training for in-person and virtual sessions, with attendance tracking and roster management built in. If you are delivering content via SCORM through your own LMS, classroom functionality will depend on the capabilities of that system.
