CDG proudly presents the Certified POSH Compliance Expert, a comprehensive, self-paced online program designed for professionals who are responsible for building and safeguarding respectful workplaces. Grounded in the requirements of the Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act, 2013, this course equips you to interpret the law accurately, translate policy into daily practice, and lead compliant, humane responses to concerns. Whether you are an HR leader, Internal Committee (IC) member, compliance officer, people manager, legal practitioner, consultant, or a founder shaping organizational culture, the course provides the depth, clarity, and practicality you need to implement POSH with confidence.

Course Overview

The Certified POSH Compliance Expert program blends legal precision with hands-on application. You will learn how the law evolved, why it matters for every kind of organization, and how to operationalize its mandates across offices, plants, retail sites, and remote or hybrid setups. From drafting and communicating a clear, organization-specific POSH policy to constituting a legally compliant Internal Committee, every step is explained in plain language and reinforced with realistic scenarios. You will explore the mechanics of complaint intake, screening, inquiry planning, interviewing parties and witnesses, evaluating evidence—including emails, messages, and other digital records—maintaining confidentiality, and documenting each stage to an audit-ready standard.

Beyond the core processes, the course emphasizes culture building: how to embed POSH values into hiring and onboarding, align POSH with performance and discipline, and sustain awareness programs that go beyond compliance to genuine behavioral change. You will also examine risk assessment methods, data governance and privacy in POSH records, accountability through periodic reporting, and advanced topics such as managing offsite events, contractor interfaces, and multi-location operations. By the end, you will be able to design preventive controls, conduct fair and timely inquiries, recommend proportionate actions, and demonstrate due diligence to leadership and regulators.

Course Features

This is a self-paced, text-based learning experience carefully structured for busy professionals. The lessons are written to be crisp yet thorough, using plain-English explanations of statutory provisions and procedures alongside practical examples that mirror real workplace situations. Throughout the course, you will encounter case-led narratives, model forms, and structured frameworks you can adapt to your organization’s context. You will practice the full lifecycle—from first report to final recommendation—so you understand not only what to do, but why and when to do it.

Each unit concludes with knowledge checks to reinforce comprehension and highlight common pitfalls. You will receive guidance on setting up Internal Committee operations, building consistent recordkeeping habits, mapping process timelines, and preparing legally sound reports. Special attention is given to confidentiality and data protection, including how to store case materials securely and communicate need-to-know information without compromising privacy. When you are ready, you can sit for the online exam, designed to test both conceptual mastery and practical decision-making. Upon successful completion, your certificate is generated online, making it easy to share your achievement with your organization or clients.
