Median non-mandatory MAU was 23%
Across 75 companies where non-mandatory training could be isolated, median MAU was 23%. This is the sample median, not an average or top-performer figure.

Five patterns observed across 107 companiesSamples and observation scopeKey metrics and interpretationAcross 75 companies where non-mandatory training could be isolated, median MAU was 23%. This is the sample median, not an average or top-performer figure.
Non-mandatory cohort n=75 · Observed, not guaranteed
For 60 companies observed beyond month 25, median non-mandatory MAU was 19%. This descriptive statistic supports planning for long-running operations.
Different cohorts · Overall n=75 / Long-term n=60
Publishing 10 or more items per month correlated with MAU of 50% or more, while fewer than 3 correlated with MAU below 20%. Observational data does not establish causation.
n=75 · Correlation does not establish causation
Across 6 companies with comparable before-and-after data, the median MAU decline after compliance training was −50 percentage points. The sample is too small to generalize.
Before/after n=6 · Small sample; do not generalize
Training type, mandatory status, organization size, and operating duration vary. Read each metric with its sample size and observation scope, and do not interpret correlation as causation.
107 companies overall · Each metric has a different cohort
The number of usable companies differs by metric, so each sample must be read separately.
The analysis followed 107 companies in 8 industries for up to 35 months. Not every company appears in every metric.
Across 75 companies where mandatory participation could be separated, median MAU was 23%.
Across 60 companies observed beyond month 25, median non-mandatory MAU was 19%.
Each figure is descriptive data for the observed sample and does not guarantee another organization's outcome.
| Metric | Observed value | Interpretation scope |
|---|---|---|
| Non-mandatory MAU | Median 23% · n=75 | Sample separating mandatory participation |
| Long-running MAU | Median 19% · n=60 | Sample after month 25 |
| Content cadence | 10+/month ↔ MAU 50%+ | Correlation, not causation |
| Low content cadence | Fewer than 3/month ↔ MAU below 20% | Correlation, not causation |
| After compliance training | Median decline −50%p · n=6 | Small sample; do not generalize |
