Training Plan

Design a legal compliance training program for "$ARGUMENTS". Identify training needs by role, design training modules, set cadence and tracking, and plan delivery methods.

Note: AI-generated legal content does not constitute legal advice. Consult a qualified attorney.

Arguments. $ARGUMENTS may contain the project name and optional flags. Take the first token as <project> and treat --skip-checks as a flag; never include flags in file paths. All paths below use <project>. If --skip-checks is present, skip the prerequisite check and, before writing any artifact, append one line to .metapowers/legal/<project>/skip-log.md: - <ISO timestamp> — <skill name> skipped prerequisite check for <artifact file> — reason: <reason or "none given">.

Prerequisites

Check that .metapowers/legal/<project>/00-assess.md exists. If it does not exist, stop and tell the user:

"Run an Assess skill first (e.g. /legal:risk-assessment <project>) to generate the prerequisite assessment artifact."

Process

  1. Read inputs:

    • Read .metapowers/legal/<project>/00-assess.md for risk context, applicable regulations, and organizational profile
    • Review any existing compliance artifacts in .metapowers/legal/<project>/
  2. Identify training needs by role:

    • All employees:
      • Data protection basics (handling personal data, recognizing data breaches)
      • Confidentiality obligations (trade secrets, proprietary information)
      • Code of conduct and ethics
      • Reporting procedures (whistleblower channels, incident reporting)
    • Engineering:
      • Open-source license compliance (permissive vs. copyleft, attribution requirements)
      • Security practices (secure coding, vulnerability handling, access controls)
      • Data handling in development (test data, production data separation)
      • IP considerations (invention assignments, prior art awareness)
    • Sales:
      • Contract terms they can and cannot negotiate
      • NDA procedures and standard terms
      • Anti-bribery and anti-corruption basics
      • Competition law essentials (pricing discussions, market allocation)
    • HR:
      • Employment law basics (hiring, termination, documentation)
      • Discrimination and harassment prevention and response
      • Leave and accommodation requirements
      • Employee data privacy
    • Procurement:
      • Vendor assessment and due diligence requirements
      • Contract review fundamentals
      • Conflict of interest policies
      • Supply chain compliance obligations
  3. Design training modules with learning objectives:

    • For each module, define:
      • Title — clear, descriptive module name
      • Target audience — which roles must complete this module
      • Learning objectives — specific, measurable outcomes (e.g., "Identify the three types of personal data under GDPR")
      • Duration — estimated time to complete
      • Content outline — key topics covered
      • Practical exercises — scenarios, case studies, or simulations
  4. Set training cadence:

    • Onboarding — required modules completed within first 30 days of employment
    • Annual refresh — mandatory annual recertification on core compliance topics
    • Event-triggered training — additional training required when:
      • New regulations take effect
      • A compliance incident occurs
      • Role changes require new competencies
      • Policy updates are implemented
    • Define grace periods and consequences for non-completion
  5. Define completion tracking and certification:

    • Track completion status per employee per module
    • Issue certificates of completion with expiration dates
    • Generate compliance reports showing organization-wide training status
    • Set minimum passing scores for assessments
    • Maintain audit-ready training records
  6. Create assessment questions per module:

    • Develop knowledge-check questions aligned with learning objectives
    • Include scenario-based questions testing practical application
    • Mix question formats (multiple choice, true/false, scenario response)
    • Define passing threshold (recommended: 80% minimum)
    • Create question pool for randomized assessments
  7. Identify delivery method per module:

    • E-learning — self-paced online modules for foundational topics
    • Live workshop — interactive sessions for complex or discussion-heavy topics
    • Documentation — reference guides and quick-reference cards for ongoing use
    • Micro-learning — short, focused content for specific updates or reminders
    • Match delivery method to content complexity and audience needs
  8. Plan regulatory-specific training:

    • GDPR awareness — data subject rights, lawful bases, cross-border transfers
    • CCPA requirements — consumer rights, opt-out mechanisms, service provider obligations
    • SOC 2 controls — security policies, access management, incident response
    • Accessibility (WCAG) — accessible design principles, testing procedures, remediation
    • Tailor regulatory training depth to each role's exposure level
  9. Write the artifact — append to .metapowers/legal/<project>/04-govern.md under a ## Training Plan section. Create the file with a # Govern — <project> heading if it does not exist; if a ## Training Plan section already exists, replace only that section. The section contains:

    • Training Needs Matrix — role-based training requirements
    • Module Catalog — all training modules with objectives and durations
    • Training Cadence — schedule for onboarding, refresh, and event-triggered training
    • Tracking and Certification — completion tracking approach and reporting
    • Assessment Framework — sample questions and passing criteria per module
    • Delivery Methods — method selection rationale per module
    • Regulatory Training Plan — regulation-specific training details

Output

The training plan appended to .metapowers/legal/<project>/04-govern.md. Present a summary to the user highlighting:

  • Total number of training modules and their target audiences
  • Training cadence overview (onboarding, annual, event-triggered)
  • Key regulatory training requirements
  • Recommended delivery methods and tracking approach
