Changes from previous years trainings
In previous years, the trainings for Students and Employees were in different locations and covered slightly different content. This year, the University of Alaska has consolidated the trainings into one cohesive online program accessed through blackboard. This new training will cover all the federally mandated requirements to ensure our campus is informed on Title IX.
Training for Students and Employees
The online on-demand training is available through Blackboard for students and employees. All UAA students and employees are required to complete UA Title IX training every academic year. If you have completed an in-person training then you have satisfied this requirement.
Degree seeking, living in campus housing, middle college students enrolled at the university, or on national/international exchange who have not completed the training since July 1, 2021 must complete the UA Safe training.
The Title IX training course will cover sensitive issues. If you have experienced trauma in the past related to sex or gender-based discrimination and you feel that impacts your ability to take the Title IX training, you can opt out by completing the Title IX Training Opt Out Form.
