Annual Title IX training is required for UA staff and faculty

Thank you for your work toward creating a welcoming, inclusive environment where students and other employees feel safe and supported. The university provides tools to assist you in knowing what to do when you become aware of difficult situations, including sexual harassment or assault, through Title IX training and online resources. Annual UA Safe Title IX Training is mandatory and must be completed by October 31, 2022.

Employees will be taking the same highly-successful training developed in-house through the University of Alaska Anchorage that students are required to complete. The online course is in Blackboard based on the latest version of university policy and guided by Federal mandates.
