Harassment and discrimination training is critical to business, but it's not the business most companies are in.
The focus on business outsourcing continues to grow and impact the way organizations do business. Today's companies now know that it makes better business sense to build their infrastructure by leveraging companies that have the expertise in the business processes they need. Some of the benefits of outsourcing include:
- Focus can remain on core business activities
- World-class solutions and expertise are accessed
- Cost structure becomes variable
- Inside resources are freed for other purposes
- Operating expenses are reduced and controlled
- New ideas are required
- Risk is reduced

When outsourcing is applied to harassment and discrimination training, most organizational training departments respond by giving examples of training products and services they purchased because it did not makes sense for them to develop in house. What organizations fail to realize is the time, the money, the effort and the resources that are being spent, or misspent. It's not that they are doing a bad job - they are probably doing a fine job of meeting their internal customer's needs – it's just they are not as efficient, effective or as experienced as a company whose core business is training. Now, throw in elearning, knowledge management and learning management systems. Suddenly the training group is working overtime attempting to become experts. There is content selection, content development, competency mapping, web solutions and so on. The investment of time, energy and resources is tremendous. The cost and complexity of implementing any kind of training solution is compounded by every decision. There is a better way…outsource your harassment and discrimination training services. PRISM can help.
Some organizations have an existing harassment and discrimination prevention training initiative but need assistance in tailoring the program and/or delivery its content. PRISM provides program developers and facilitators knowledgeable and current in the law who can customize and deliver content anywhere in the country in 1 hour, 2 hour, 4 hour or 1 day formats. We can even deliver live facilitation utilizing our web conferencing capability.
In addition to developing and delivering our own Creating and Maintaining a Harassment-Free Workplaceä training program which has been implemented in organizations across the country like Bowne & Company and BP AMOCO, PRISM has provided its expertise in assisting organizations like Bell Atlantic and the Harris Corporation with their development and delivery.
