HDAPP Facilitated Trainings

These trainings listed in this section are facilitated by HDAPP staff members. Some of them may meet some mandated training requirements, so please be sure to read the descriptions to see what works best for you. You can register for these trainings through UC Davis Learning Center.

  • Sexual Violence, Sexual Harassment and Discrimination: Prevention for Supervisors and Employees
  • This course is designed to provide UCD employees (staff/faculty) with information to recognize the Prohibited Conduct, their reporting responsibilities, available resources, and options for remedy. The workshop will include scenarios and opportunities to apply theory to practice.

    Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:
    - Define Prohibited Conduct; discrimination, sexual violence, and sexual harassment.
    - Understand their role as responsible employees and the reporting process .
    - Receive an overview of Resolution Processes.
    - Recognize the types of conduct that constitutes sexual violence and harassment.
    - Confirm internal/external resources and reporting options.

    This course satisfies the UC Sexual Harassment and Sexual Violence policy requirement for all new continuing non-supervisory staff to attend annually a more comprehensive training session.

  • Sexual Harassment and Discrimination Prevention: Advanced Topics for Supervisors
  • This course is for supervisors to focus on case studies related to sexual harassment and other forms of discrimination in a university environment.

    During this course, participants will:
    - Review Prohibited Conduct, Resolution Processes, and reporting obligations.
    - Practice receiving and reporting concerns of Prohibited Conduct
    - Rehearse a supervisor's role in the resolution of complaints.

    We strongly encourage that this course is taken after the UC on-line sexual harassment prevention training or the in-person Sexual Violence, Sexual Harassment, and Discrimination: Prevention for Employees training. If you only did the on-line training, we highly encourage you to take the in-person training too. This course satisfies both the 2 year mandatory UC Sexual Violence Prevention training for all employees & the 2 year legal AB1825 requirement for supervisors to complete sexual harassment prevention training.
