Thesis and scope
This response proposes a research‑informed curriculum design for a corporate Sales Compliance program. It applies backward design to align learning objectives, assessments, and instructional strategies, and includes a set of realistic case-study scenarios specifically targeting sales compliance risks across jurisdictions and industries. Recommendations are grounded in established learning science and authoritative legal/regulatory sources.

Program overview
- Target audience: Global sales representatives, account executives, channel managers, sales operations, and first-line sales leaders; optional tracks for distributors/agents.
- Program format: Blended learning (self-paced e-learning, virtual workshops, coached role-plays, performance support in CRM).
- Duration: Core certification path (6–8 hours) plus quarterly microlearning (15–20 minutes), annual recertification (90 minutes).
- Prerequisites: Code of Conduct and Speak-Up training.

Learning objectives (aligned with Bloom’s revised taxonomy)
By the end of the core program, participants will be able to:
1) Identify at least five common sales compliance risks and map them to corresponding legal frameworks (remember/understand).
2) Analyze sales scenarios to distinguish permissible customer incentives from prohibited bribery, kickbacks, bid-rigging, deceptive advertising, or sanctions violations (analyze).
3) Evaluate third-party sales partner arrangements and perform basic due diligence triage using a risk-based checklist (evaluate).
4) Construct compliant marketing and outreach plans reflecting applicable privacy and telemarketing requirements in at least two jurisdictions (apply/create).
5) Demonstrate compliant behaviors in role-plays, including refusal/deflection scripts, documentation, and escalation (apply).
6) Use CRM tooling to document value transfers, approvals, and red flags consistent with recordkeeping and audit requirements (apply).

Curriculum architecture (modules)
Module 1. Foundations of Sales Compliance
- Content: Principles-based compliance; risk-based approach; personal accountability; recordkeeping; speak-up culture.
- Key frameworks: DOJ/SEC FCPA Resource Guide; UK Bribery Act principles; OFAC compliance elements.

- Performance target: Draft a team-level “compliance commitments” plan with monitoring indicators.

Assessment strategy (backward design alignment)
- Diagnostic pre-test: 20-item adaptive quiz to tailor learning pathways.
- Formative assessments:
  - Retrieval practice micro-quizzes every 5–7 minutes in e-learning (Roediger & Karpicke, 2006; Dunlosky et al., 2013).
  - Worked-example problem sets with completion prompts (Clark & Mayer, 2016).
  - Branching scenarios that require selecting actions and documenting rationales.
- Performance assessments:
  - OSCE-style role-plays: 10-minute sales calls with standardized customers; rubric assesses red-flag recognition, deflection language, documentation, escalation.
  - CRM documentation audit: Learners correct flawed opportunity records and add required approvals and notes.
  - Third-party due diligence triage: Classify fictional resellers by risk; decide on EDD requirements and contract clauses.
- Summative certification: Proctored scenario exam (70% case analysis, 30% application tasks); performance threshold ≥ 80% with retake coaching.
- Long-term retention: Spaced retrieval microlearning at 2, 4, and 8 weeks (Cepeda et al., 2006).

Instructional strategies (evidence-based)
- Backward design and alignment (Wiggins & McTighe, 2005).
- Spaced retrieval and interleaving of risk categories across modules (Dunlosky et al., 2013).
- Deliberate practice with feedback: scripted and unscripted role-plays; immediate, criteria-referenced feedback (Ericsson et al., 1993).
- Worked examples transitioning to bounded problem-solving (Clark & Mayer, 2016).
- Scenario authenticity via artifacts: emails, SOWs, invoices, event agendas, CRM snapshots.
- Social learning: peer calibration sessions using anonymized real cases.

Delivery and accessibility
- Modalities: LMS-based SCORM/xAPI modules, virtual instructor-led workshops, field-coaching playbooks.
- Accessibility: WCAG 2.2 AA compliance; transcripts, keyboard navigation, alt text, color-contrast 4.5:1 (W3C, 2023).
- Localization: Jurisdictional toggles (e.g., UKBA vs. FCPA facilitation; TCPA vs. GDPR/ePrivacy marketing rules).

Program evaluation and governance
- Kirkpatrick Levels 1–4 plus Phillips ROI:
  - L1 reaction: Use standardized usefulness and relevance metrics.
  - L2 learning: Pre/post delta on knowledge and scenario scores (target ≥ 20% improvement).
  - L3 behavior: Supervisor observations; CRM audit of documentation quality; mystery‑shop calls for compliance language.
  - L4 results: Leading indicators (reduced policy exceptions, earlier escalations); lagging indicators (decrease in substantiated incidents; fewer regulator inquiries).
  - ROI: Compare program cost to avoided incident costs and reduced corrective actions (Phillips, 1997).
- Quality assurance: Annual legal review; quarterly item analysis of assessments; A/B testing of microlearning.

Sales compliance case-study scenarios (with assessment prompts)
Case 1. “Quarter-End Hospitality at a State-Owned Utility” (ABC)
- Context: Account executive in Country A invites a procurement manager at a state-owned utility to a sports event with travel and hotel; event coincides with RFP evaluation.
- Artifacts: Email thread; hospitality policy; RFP timeline; estimate of hospitality value; list of prior interactions.
- Tasks:
  - Determine whether the customer qualifies as a “foreign official” (DOJ & SEC, 2020).
  - Evaluate whether the hospitality meets policy thresholds and timing restrictions; identify risks of intent to influence.
  - Decide on actions: decline, modify, seek pre-approval with safeguards, or escalate; document rationale.
- Scoring criteria:
  - Correct classification of foreign official status (critical).
  - Identification of timing/red flag (pending decision; high value; lack of business rationale).
  - Proper application of FCPA vs. UK Bribery Act distinctions (facilitation not applicable; UKBA has no exception for facilitation payments).
  - Completeness of documentation and escalation route.

Case 2. “Distributor Margin and Marketing Development Funds (MDF)” (ABC + books/records)
- Context: Regional channel manager approves above-market MDF for a distributor in Country B; MDF usage documentation is vague; recent lost opportunities converted unexpectedly.
- Artifacts: MDF agreement; invoices; photos of purported events; payment flow map.
- Tasks:
  - Assess third-party bribery risk; identify inadequate substantiation and potential off-the-books slush funds (DOJ & SEC, 2020).
  - Propose enhanced due diligence and contractual controls (audit rights, certifications, anti-bribery clauses).
  - Decide whether to suspend payments, report, or remediate.

Notes on legal precision
- Facilitation payments: The FCPA contains a narrow exception for facilitating or expediting routine governmental actions; many jurisdictions (including the UK Bribery Act) prohibit such payments; organizational policies often ban them regardless (DOJ & SEC, 2020).
- Direct marketing in the EU: In addition to GDPR, the ePrivacy Directive governs electronic marketing; consent is typically required for B2C and, in some countries, for B2B.
- TCPA: Prior express written consent is generally required for marketing texts/calls using an automatic telephone dialing system or prerecorded voice to wireless numbers (47 U.S.C. § 227).
