Sexual Violence Prevention Online Training Programs

All incoming SJSU students are expected to complete online training on sexual violence and alcohol abuse prevention. Continuing students will complete a refresher course annually.

Title IX requires higher education institutions to take necessary precautions to prevent sexual assault on their campuses, and to respond promptly and effectively when an assault is reported. To fully comply with Title IX, the CSU Chancellor’s Office issued Executive Order 1095 which mandates education training programs to prevent sexual violence. For more information and resources, please visit Title IX / Gender Equity Issues.

Please see below for a brief description of the training programs.

You will receive email notifications from Student Wellness Center and our training vendor, Vector Solutions LMS, @safecolleges.com to complete your training.
