Our Services
We work with agencies in establishing effective ethics-related systems, from training through to audit and risk aspects.
Our approach is to develop an organisational response to make ethical practice part of the business improvement cycle.
By aligning generational approaches to ethics and incorporating training strategies commensurate to workforce dynamics and characteristics, Urban E-Learning focusses on closing the loop for better performance.
With high management and strategic risk management experience, Urban E-Learning can assist with strategies to reduce uncontrolled exposure to ethical problems and conflict of interest.
Working closely with the audit functions, to develop lead and lag indicators Urban E-Learning reviews have closed loops in:
- policy development
- procurement
- finance
- technical
- governance
Urban E-Learning works with HR to take legislative and high level policy into organisations through documentation, on-line training and facilitated discussions.
We have a clear role in handling ethics training in a pragmatic and discreet manner. Being outside of the public service and particularly the agency internal structure and the external enforcement agencies, Urban E-learning can confidently manage and respond to issues that might arise in on-line and face to face situations.
Through Urban Executive we offer confidential advice and assistance in resolving particular incidents, with a focus on reducing the risk of a repeat incident and strengthening organisational strategies.
