Trainings

Tier I and Tier II individuals are required to complete the annual Safety and Protection of Minors/Clery Act Training. The course is accessed and completion is tracked through the registration system.

Tier III individuals, who are not permitted to interact with minors without the direct supervision of a Tier I or II individual, are not required to complete the Safety and Protection of Minors/Clery Act Training. The training is available within the registration system for Tier III individuals to complete at the discretion of their Program Supervisor or for optional learning.

Non-Compliance

The Safety and Protection of Minors on Campus policy sets requirements for the screening, supervision and training of individuals working with Minors– to comply with applicable law protecting the safety of Minors and to promote safe, educational experiences for Minors participating in University and Non-University Programs. Non-compliance procedures have been established to reduce the prevalence and recurrence of Policy non-compliance, and to increase training about the policy across the University. Please see the non-compliance procedures page for more information.
