At my previous employer, we had weekly meetings on drawing standards, design standards, industry standards or just about any other standards you could think of that related to our business..... this was a pretty good way of doing things...every employee was required to give a 1 hour "class" on something that they either felt the other employees needed to know or on a subject that they personally had issues with and needed to discuss. At the end of each "class" changes were immediately implemented.
We had 14 people, so everyone had to give a class about every 3 months. The "instructor" was required to research the topic of their choosing, provide documentation to all participants, explain the material as best could be explained, and answer questions about the topic... your personal research would make you understand that topic much better and everyone benefitted as a result.
In my 15 years there I gave many classes, I must say that while I did learn from the hour or so of "class time" that others gave, I learned a whole lot more researching the standards and creating documentation for "my" class than I ever did sitting in on one.
It might be worth looking into, especially if you have a small group that can hold informal meetings once a week for an hour or so. The employees, while they may be negative at first, will soon realize that they have a vital role in the implementation of policy and standards since their personal research may actually turn up information that is ambiguous and those issues can then be resolved.
