Our heritage

Backed by more than a century of ethics education

EWG's sister company, the Ethics & Compliance Initiative, has been educating people since 1922. Today ECI is the independent standard for ethics, compliance and integrity programs. It certifies ethics and compliance leaders and AI governance professionals, assesses the quality of corporate ethics and compliance programs, convenes a peer community of senior compliance officers, and publishes Compliance Week. EWG builds on that experience when it designs training for your members.

Why EWG

A training program for members takes more than a course designer or a software platform

A course designer hands you content. A software vendor hands you an empty platform. Neither one knows how a member program gets adopted, renewed and paid for. That is the part we know best, because running membership organizations and certifications is our heritage.

We run membership organizations ourselves

Through our sister companies, ECI and Compliance Week, we serve about 700 corporate members and 10,000 compliance professionals. We know how training becomes a member benefit people use, how it supports renewals, and how it can earn revenue for the association instead of costing it.

We design and award certifications

Our group builds credentials from the ground up, including the body of knowledge, the assessment, and the renewal and continuing education rules. ECI's certifications in ethics and compliance leadership and AI governance, and Financial Crime Academy's anti-money laundering certifications, come from the same discipline we bring to your program.

We work with the boards that approve credit

EWG has spent nearly two decades getting courses approved by state licensing boards and reporting completions to them. We design programs so the credit is accepted the first time, in every state your members work in.

Our content is grounded in research

ECI has studied workplace ethics and compliance for more than a century, and Compliance Week reports on the field every day. Your program draws on that expertise, including current work on AI governance and AI risk.

What we do

We build it, host it and run it

You tell us who needs training and what the state requires. We handle the rest.

Build

Curricula written to state and national requirements, reviewed for the licensing board that will accept it, and scoped to your headcount, budget and timeline.

Host

A mobile-friendly learning platform that already runs our own approved continuing education sites, with course timers, assessments and certificates built in.

Operate

Enrollment support, a customer service team that answers email quickly, and electronic reporting of completed hours to the state agency.

Programs we have delivered

Organizations that trusted us with required training

American Museum of Natural History

300 staff and volunteers trained on a short timeline

The museum needed to train its staff and volunteers quickly and at a set cost. EWG built a program for the museum and trained every participant.

Columbia University, Peace Corps Fellows Program

New teachers prepared for certification

The program places returned Peace Corps volunteers in teaching. EWG set up child abuse prevention and school violence workshops for the fellows and supported them through to certification.

New York Public Library

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Can you build and run a certification program for our members?

Yes. We work with your association to define what the certification covers, then build the courses and exam, host them, issue certificates, and track renewals and continuing education. The program carries your association's name.

Are your courses state approved?

Our course sites offer courses approved by state and national licensing boards, including the New York State Department of Education and Department of Health and 30 state funeral licensing boards. For custom programs, we tell you up front which board will accept the training.

How are completed hours reported?

We report hours electronically to the state agency, normally the next business day. Courses finished after hours on Friday or over the weekend are reported Monday, dated the day they were completed.

Do users have to finish in one sitting?

No. Users can log on and off as often as they like. A timer tracks total time spent on each course.

How do organizations pay?

We accept major US credit and debit cards, and purchase orders from institutions and universities.
