Benchmark Your E&C Program

ECI’s HQP Assessment helps organizations measure and benchmark the maturity of their Ethics & Compliance (E&C) programs against industry peers and globally recognized standards—providing the insights you need to improve, demonstrate progress, and lead with confidence.

What is HQP Assessment?

The HQP is an online self-assessment, based on a framework that was developed by E&C practitioners. Conducted by ECI’s experts, it provides a comprehensive maturity assessment across five core areas—Strategy, Risk Management, Culture, Speaking Up, and Accountability—aligning your program with global benchmarks and revealing actionable insights for growth.
In addition to the HQP assessment for E&C, learn about the companion assessments geared toward your board and senior leaders.
