New Sexual Harassment Training Available Online
Read the message from Interim Provost and Executive Vice President
Colorado State University is offering a new way for employees to learn about sexual harassment prevention. Any member of the Colorado State University community now can take an online tutorial where users can read the definitions of sexual harassment, the federal law and CSU campus policy, and work through various scenarios. A confidential test component at the end of the training also allows users to see how well they understand these concepts. Since it is located on the web, accessibility is 24 hours a day, 365 days a year!
OUR COMMITMENT:
Colorado State University strives to create and maintain a work and student environment that is fair, humane, and respectful so that each member of the University community is treated with dignity and rewarded for such relevant considerations as ability and performance. The University is committed to preventing, correcting and disciplining incidents of unlawful sexual harassment. CSU's policy applies to all persons affiliated with the University, including its students and employees. Read more
