Required Sexual Misconduct Training for all Employees Coming Soon

Dear UMD Faculty and Staff,

President Kaler introduced the President's Initiative to Prevent Sexual Misconduct to all employees on all campuses in early November, and recently he shared that a required training for all faculty and staff will be rolled out across the University soon.
 
The Preventing and Responding to Sexual Misconduct Training is an important step in providing us with the tools to respond compassionately and seriously when any of us learns that a University community member has experienced sexual misconduct. It also explains every employee's obligation to report possible sexual misconduct to the campus Title IX office, as required by recently approved Board of Regents and administrative policies.
 
Beginning February 19, the training will be available to access online. Watch for an email from training@umn.edu with a link to access the training. You can expect to receive the email sometime during the period of February 19 - 25. The online training includes an introductory video and takes approximately 60 minutes to complete. You do not need to complete the training in one sitting. You can save your work and complete the training later as long as you fully complete it by June 30.

When you log in to the training, you will have access to a training introductory video. If you have questions about the training, please consult this training guide and FAQ, or reach out to your Human Resources & Equal Opportunity Department.

Thank you for making the training a top priority. This training is vitally important to the health, safety, and wellbeing of our University of Minnesota community.

Sincerely,

Lendley C. Black
Chancellor
