Last updated: 2026-07-14 Getting people through mandatory training is the easy part. Proving they went through it is the hard part. [Contact Sales](https://www.touchclass.com/form/contact) ## The hard part of mandatory training is the evidence, not the training Assigning target groups automatically, pushing reminders to non-completers, and exporting completion records as a one-click report means audit and labour-inspection material stays ready rather than being assembled under pressure. The Essential plan starts at **USD 4.5 per user per month (VAT excluded)** and includes mandatory training and completion management ([/en/price](https://www.touchclass.com/en/price)). One caution we would rather state than bury: if mandatory training is **all** you run, off-peak engagement falls to **1–5%** ([/en/data-report](https://www.touchclass.com/en/data-report)). Statutory requirements, penalties, and retention periods are matters of law and change over time. Treat what follows as operational guidance, not legal advice, and confirm the current obligations for your industry and headcount with the relevant authority or your own counsel.

Send targeted push notifications to non-completers in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd rounds. Among the roughly 40 companies that run this pattern — converting required training into always-on mobile learning — median MAU is 89%, ranging from 78% to 97%. That is a different population from the 84% median cited elsewhere on this page, which covers all 31 companies observed during statutory-training periods. MAU median 89% (78–97%) · P3 pattern, ~40 companies - leadership Development A major game company operates 23 courses by position. Team leads and new leaders get different tracks, bundled with mandatory training. On platforms with only mandatory training, access rate drops to 5~10% after completion.

Without it, usage drops to 5~10%. Global franchise hit 97% MAU, retail subsidiary 89% — both run always-on content alongside mandatory training. always-on MAU 40~60% - Compliance training cost savings Four to five compliance courses are included at no extra cost, saving 30,000 to 50,000 KRW per person per year in outsourcing fees on the Korean market. For a 1,000-user enterprise that is roughly 40 million KRW per year. No more outsourcing fees for separate compliance training vendors. 1,000 users: ~40M KRW/year saved - Content threshold: 500+ courses Institutions with 500+ courses show meaningfully higher off-peak MAU.

Yes. Target groups are assigned automatically, non-completers are flagged and reminded, and completion records are exported as a report. The practical benefit is that evidence accumulates continuously instead of being assembled the week an audit lands. Note that statutory obligations vary by industry and headcount and change over time — this is operational guidance, not legal advice. Source: https://www.touchclass.com/en/training-cost ### Can completion status be tallied automatically? Yes. Completion is tracked per course, department, and individual without manual Excel work, and the dashboard shows who is outstanding in real time rather than at month end. This is where most of the administrative time in compliance training actually goes — not the teaching, the counting. Source: https://www.touchclass.com/en/training-cost ### Can reminders be sent to non-completers automatically? Yes. Push notifications and reminders can be scheduled to go only to people who have not completed, on a cadence you set as the deadline approaches. Because the list regenerates itself, the administrator does not have to rebuild it each time. Source: https://www.touchclass.com/en/training-cost ### Can we produce completion evidence for an audit or labour inspection? Completion records can be exported as a report covering course, department, and individual. Because records accumulate as training happens, the evidence is available when the request arrives. What no platform can do is guarantee a legal outcome — retention periods and required formats are set by law and should be confirmed with the relevant authority or your own counsel. Source: https://www.touchclass.com/en/training-cost ### Is mandatory training content included? Yes. The Essential plan starts at USD 4.5 per user per month (VAT excluded, minimum USD 500 per month for 1–200 people) and includes mandatory training along with completion management. Higher tiers run USD 4.0 (Professional) and USD 3.0 (Business) per user per month, with Enterprise quoted separately. Source: https://www.touchclass.com/en/price ### How much can we reduce our training budget? Against fully offline training, reported savings run about 63% — but that comes from fewer than five companies, and a company already running online training will see far less. Our ROI calculator returns 3.6–4.4x, and we will be explicit: that is a simulator output driven by the inputs you supply, not a measured result and not a guaranteed one. Source: https://www.touchclass.com/en/roi-calculator ### Is it fine to run only mandatory training? Running only mandatory training is fine, as long as you expect what follows. Where compliance training is the only thing running, off-peak engagement falls to 1–5%, and the median drop after a deadline is about 50 percentage points (n=6, a small sample). The platform then sits idle for most of the year. If that trade is acceptable, run compliance-only deliberately rather than being surprised by it. Source: https://www.touchclass.com/en/data-report ### How much does an LMS for mandatory training cost? The Essential plan is USD 4.5 per user per month for 1–200 people, with a minimum of 500,000 KRW per month, VAT excluded. Professional is USD 4.0 and Business USD 3.0 per user per month; Enterprise is quoted separately. When comparing vendors, check whether mandatory training content, completion management, and reporting are included in the licence or billed as add-ons.
