Office of Equity: In this training, we will discuss our role on campus and the processes we follow when we are notified of a concern, mandatory reporting obligations for campus responsible employees, what needs to be reported to our office, and an overview of the mandatory training requirements (required for all staff and faculty) to ensure compliance with University policy. If time allows, we may include videos, case studies, and other interactive activities and discussion. This training can range from 20 minutes to an 60+ minutes. Please note, this training does not fulfill your mandatory training requirement and you are still required to complete the required online trainings via Canvas or Skillsoft Percipio (or through an instructor-led course for your department).   

Ethical Bystander Training: We'd all like to consider ourselves helpful people and we want to do what's right; however, it can be hard to know how to act in moments where bias shows up. You're not alone in those feelings! In this training, we want to provide the tools for participants to understand and recognize harmful behavior alongside how to implement safe intervention strategies. If applicable to the audience, this training will briefly cover mandatory reporting obligations for responsible employees outlined in University policy. If time allows, we will provide an opportunity to practice our recommended intervention tactics. This training can take 60-90 minutes.

Responsible Employee: In this training, you will learn about your role and legal obligations as a CU community member in preventing sexual misconduct and discrimination whether in the classroom or workplace. Students and employees are not expected to be experts in preventing harm, however are required to take appropriate steps in mitigating harm. After this training, you will understand how to identify and report sexual misconduct alongside discrimination in a safe and effective manner. We recommend anyone who has the authority to hire, evaluate, discipline, promote grade, or formally advise / direct to learn more about what to report and how to report (this session can be combined with other topics). This training can range from 15 minutes to 45+ minutes.

Understanding University Policy: This workshop examines behaviors that constitute discrimination, harassment, and sexual misconduct, and how staff can recognize, respond, report, or seek help when experiencing those behaviors. This training can range from 15 minutes to 45+ minutes.

Prevention Together (via Canvas):  Learn more about the OE and the Phoenix Center at Auraria | Anschutz (PCA), and how you can help contribute to the safety and security of our campus community members. Specifically, the course covers the different types of interpersonal violence/sexual misconduct, tactics to intervene in harmful situations (when safe/appropriate), how to support a survivor, reporting obligations/University resolution options, and available campus support resources if you or someone you know is experiencing any form of discrimination, harassment, and/or sexual misconduct. The course is free and not for credit. It should take approximately one hour to complete. If you would like to be enrolled in the course, please email the OE at [email protected].
