ERA 2025 Compliance Training Hub

Online solution for staff and management training

Employment tribunal claims, reputational damage, unlimited financial penalties, and reduced employee trust are all real risks when organisations fail to stay compliant with evolving employment law requirements.

With the introduction of the Employment Rights Act (ERA) 2025, organisations must ensure their people understand both their rights and responsibilities in the workplace, supported by effective controls, reporting routes, and ongoing learning.

Our ERA 2025 compliance training hub provides structured Employment Rights Act e-learning courses for staff and managers, helping organisations move beyond static policies to practical understanding. With flexible online training options, organisations can choose between ready-made ERA compliance e-learning courses or develop a tailored ERA training solution.

Before working with Skillcast, our mandatory and refresher training was a labour intensive process focussed on administration and keeping materials up to date. Now it is a system that delivers 100% compliance with up-to-date and relevant material. It has freed us up as a business to concentrate far more on the learner experience instead of ticking boxes.

Can I track incidents related to Diversity and Inclusion?

What is Aida and how does it ensure reliable answers?

 Aida is an AI tutor embedded in courses that allows learners to ask questions at any point during learning. It draws exclusively on content that has been vetted and curated by your organisation, including course materials, internal policies, approved web resources, and regulator sites. This curated approach ensures answers reflect accurate, organisation‑specific guidance. 

Can administrators see what questions are asked and how Aida responds?

Yes. Reporting includes both the questions asked and Aida’s responses. For meaningful insight, questions are also categorised by topic (e.g., records management, gifts and hospitality) to reveal trends. All reporting is anonymised by default to encourage open, non‑threatening inquiry. To protect assessment integrity, Aida is disabled during assessments and is only available during the learning components of a course.
