BAI has a very thorough update and review process. Our content development team monitors different regulatory agencies, including the CFPB, Fed, FDIC, NCUA, the IRS, and FinCEN, and meets to do a weekly review of updates and clarifications that affect our courseware. Each new update that comes out – Proposed Rule, Final Rule, Guidance, Announcement, etc. – is individually reviewed. During this process, we review the Federal Register (or agency website, CFR, etc.) and determine which of our courses, if any, will be affected by these changes. Based on these findings, we make additions to our project plans based on the comments due, effective, and mandatory dates of the affected regulations.
With these changes, we make the necessary updates to our existing courseware, or develop new courseware when the situation demands it. We work closely with our experts to ensure that our courses accurately reflect changes to the regulations. Based on their input, our content team breaks this information down into digestible language, and creates real-life scenarios for different job categories based on updated information. We then update Course Content, Fast Tracks, Pretests, Job Aids and Comprehension Tests to ensure that the content of the update is truly absorbed by the user – not just a chunk of information shoe-horned into the course.
Once regulatory updates have undergone our extensive quality assurance process, they are released to our clients at least 90 days before mandatory compliance dates (when possible). In the meantime, we often alert customers of updates before they are released – via Alerts, Webinars, or L&D Connect items, newsletters, 90-Days, and more. In most cases, our team expedites the update process as much as possible in order to ensure that our clients are receiving the updated information as soon as possible. After the process is complete, clients are notified of course releases on the web and via email.
In terms of how to identify which courses/regulations have recently been updated, check out our 90-Day Regulatory Outlook and Alerts Now pages on L&D Connect, which are updated monthly. Also available to you is our “What’s New, What’s Updated” section, providing in-depth courseware update information the day after a release.
You can pull incomplete or overdue data for the training year by running the Quick Status Report (QSR).
Once a rule closes it cannot be reopened. However, you may copy that closed rule over as an extension if needed, to re-assign training to those who didn’t finish training. This video will walk you through the steps of copying a closed rule.
Note: If your rule close before users finished training, and you intend to copy the rule as an extension of the current year’s training, then do not enable the “Add a year to all requirements” setting during the copying process. This leaves in place the current “Don’t Assign If Passing Score Obtained After” dates, ensuring users that have already successfully completed courses will not be re-assigned them.
Our LMS is SCORM 1.2, SCORM2004 (all versions), AICC, and xAPI compliant. The LMS does not require use of a specific course authoring tool (e.g. Articulate, Captivate, Lectora), but instead relies on industry course development and communication standards. BAI Learning & Development does not provide eLearning content support. All questions and concerns regarding course behavior and transcript results should be directed to the course developer or the support staff for your authoring tool.
Below you will find a list of additional basic requirements to promote successful content deployment in most LMSs:

Assuming your organization uses rules to assigning training, review your list of existing rules, determine which ones they need training from, and make sure their profile criteria aligns with the criteria under the rule’s people group. Some organizations require names be manually added to the rule’s people group, while others prefer to use criteria like position or hire date to include users automatically in a rule. If / when the user’s name is listed in the preview results (indicating the people group was properly set up), click Save within the rule and check the user’s assignments within a few minutes to verify training has been assigned.
Tip: Rules process and pick up new users automatically overnight, and any time a training administrator clicks Save within a Rule. If you just created a profile today you may have missed the automatic processing schedule rules run on, in which case you can either click Save within the rule to trigger it to process, or wait until the next morning for courses to appear for the user.
Rules process automatically overnight, and any time a training administrator clicks Save within a Rule (wait 2-5 minutes for the process to complete).
