State of Compliance Training Programs Report
Discover what makes compliance training effective, where programs fall short, and how to scale smarter in this report from Ethena and Compliance Week.

Report highlights:
-
Customization delays are holding teams back.
Nearly two-thirds said it takes a week or longer to implement course edits with their vendor — a major issue when compliance needs to move as fast as regulation. -
Training is taking too long — and leaders are feeling the pressure.
One-third of respondents said their training programs take employees five or more hours to complete. It’s no wonder nearly half (46%) reported feeling pressure to shorten training time. -
Vendors aren’t keeping up.
Many providers still offer static, one-size-fits-all courses, even for highly regulated industries. As Susan Divers, noted compliance expert, put it: “They give the same product whether you’re a billion-dollar company or a $2,000-a-year startup.” -
AI is emerging as a game-changer.
From instant translation to same-day edits, AI is enabling companies to customize faster — and at a lower cost.
