The goal was to determine their top priorities and challenges. The findings represent responses from 677 individuals responsible for ethics and compliance programs (see respondent profile in the next section for additional details). This report presents the results our research, providing insights and analysis on such questions as:

· Does training help organizations defend their organizations from legal or regulatory risk?

· What training approaches are organizations using?

· How are organizations training their global workforce?
