Sexual Harassment Training for Employees and Managers

Course Overview

What comes to mind when you think of a constructive work environment? Is it one that’s safe? Professional? Welcoming? Everyone has a slightly different answer, but one theme is unifying: a respectful, inclusive culture, free of harassment and discrimination.

In this course, you’ll learn what a respectful workplace looks like, how to recognize harassment and discrimination, and what laws are in place to safeguard the workplace. We’ll then dig into the specifics of sexual harassment, including how to prevent and respond to inappropriate behavior as both an employee and a manager.

While this course is designed to comply with most states’ requirements for sexual harassment prevention and response training, it does not contain legal advice. You should consult your local and state statutes to ensure compliance with applicable law.
