In my previous role, I was responsible for ensuring that our LMS complied with industry standards such as SCORM and xAPI. I conducted regular audits, updated content to meet accessibility guidelines like WCAG, and ensured data privacy compliance with GDPR. I also collaborated with IT and legal teams to address any compliance gaps, ensuring seamless integration of new features while maintaining regulatory adherence.

I stay informed by subscribing to industry newsletters, attending webinars, and participating in professional forums. I also follow updates from regulatory bodies like the Department of Education and GDPR authorities. Regularly reviewing compliance documentation and collaborating with legal experts ensures I can proactively adapt our systems to meet evolving standards.

I would implement encryption for sensitive data, enforce strong password policies, and conduct regular security audits. Additionally, I would ensure compliance with data protection laws like GDPR or FERPA by restricting access to authorized personnel only. Training staff on data security best practices and monitoring system activity for anomalies would further safeguard the learning environment.

When non-compliance issues arise, I first identify the root cause through a thorough audit. I then develop a corrective action plan, which may include updating policies, retraining staff, or modifying system configurations. I communicate transparently with stakeholders, ensuring they understand the issue and the steps being taken to resolve it, while documenting the process for future reference.

In a previous role, I identified gaps in our LMS’s accessibility compliance. I led a project to update all course materials to meet WCAG 2.1 standards, trained content creators on accessibility best practices, and implemented automated checks to flag non-compliant content. This not only improved compliance but also enhanced the learning experience for all users, including those with disabilities.
