When it comes to networking and sharing ideas with other compliance professionals, people tend to think of attending conferences. That’s not the only way to do it.

In this podcast Steve Pavlicek, Community Engagement Manager at SCCE & HCCA shares the free resources the association provides and how to take advantage of them.

First stop are HCCAnet and SCCEnet. They were created to be a social network just for the compliance community. People post and answer questions, share their opinions and even documents.

To see all that’s there, first login on the SCCE or HCCA site. Next, click the Login button on HCCAnet or SCCEnet. You’ll find approximately 40 different communities discussing issues such as auditing and monitoring, the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, privacy and more. There are also communities organized by industry.

If you’re looking for real-time interactions try one of our Meet Ups. You’ll find a schedule of them at HCCAnet and SCCEnet. These sessions take place via Teams. The group selects topics to discuss, breaks up into smaller groups for conversation, then returns for further conversation.

In addition, there are active LinkedIn groups for SCCE and HCCA. Read the messages there, share insights of your own, or use the group to connect directly with other compliance professionals.

In sum, there are a host of vehicles out there for you to connect with and meet the wider compliance community. Be sure to take advantage of all of them.
