  • All staff now have reporting responsibility, if they have information that a student has suffered sexual violence or other prohibited behavior
  • 27,500 must complete the course by May 9

Thousands of nonsupervisory staff at all 嘿嘿视频 locations are being required for the first time to receive training in sexual violence and sexual harassment prevention.

The systemwide training, required annually, emphasizes the role that all employees have in helping to keep students safe.

鈥淧reventing and responding to sexual harassment and sexual violence on our campuses is a responsibility we all share,鈥 Chancellor Linda P.B. Katehi wrote in a Feb. 3 letter to the campus community. 鈥淚 am confident that together we can create and maintain a safe environment for all our students, faculty and staff.鈥

  • (HDAPP) 鈥 530-752-9255
  • (AA/EEO) 鈥 916-734-5335

The training has come about, in part, because of a major change to , with respect to its reporting requirement 鈥 that is, who is required to report suspected sexual violence or other behavior prohibited by the policy?

Under the revised policy that took effect Jan. 1, UC has broadened the reporting requirement to designate all staff and student employees 鈥 with some exceptions 鈥 as 鈥渞esponsible employees.鈥 This means that, if in the course of their employment, a staff member or student employee receives information that a student has suffered sexual violence, sexual harassment or other behavior prohibited by the policy, then that employee is required to report the information promptly to the campus鈥檚 Title IX office, which includes HDAPP on the Davis campus and AA/EEO at the 嘿嘿视频 Health System. See box for contact information.

Certain employees fall under the category of confidential resources, and as such they are exempt from passing along information to the Title IX office.

The revised policy does not change the reporting obligations of faculty, managers and supervisors, who are required to report information they receive about policy-prohibited conduct experienced by anyone affiliated with the university. Faculty, managers and supervisors are excluded from the new training, however, because they already receive similar training (that program has been updated, but training schedules are not being adjusted, so people will see the new material when their next scheduled refresher rolls around).
