The Problem

Compliance training isn't onboarding.

SafeSchools and Vector Solutions handle the legal requirements. Nobody handles the rest, and that gap is where new hires get lost, regardless of what program they're walking into.

What districts have today
Generic compliance modules, FERPA, harassment, bloodborne pathogens
Static PDFs employees click through with no interaction or assessment
One-size-fits-all vendor content that ignores your district's programs
New hires who arrive unprepared for the curriculum they're actually teaching
No updates when programs, policies, or staff change
What EPIC builds
Custom eLearning modules specific to your district's programs and culture
Interactive Articulate Storyline experiences with real assessments and branching
Dual Language, ESL, Early Childhood, Literacy, and Intervention, built for your program, not a generic version of it
SCORM-compliant, LMS-ready, works with your existing systems
Annual maintenance so your modules stay current
