Emergency events can happen any place, any time. Many colleges and
universities are required to have a written emergency action plan, and must
train employees over that plan. These plans, however, can often be long and
detailed, covering many different types of emergencies, which can make it
difficult for employees to understand the context of various policies and
procedures, and how their individual role fits into the larger plan. This
awareness-level course will provide a general overview of emergency action
plans and standard actions for employees to take during different types of
emergencies. The course includes information about different types of alarm
signals, common features of an emergency evacuation, and the proper
circumstances and methods for using a portable fire extinguisher. This course

Sexual assault and sexual misconduct are an ongoing and serious problem at
schools across the country. According to the National Institute of Justice,
about 1 in 5 women and 6% of men are victims of completed or attempted
sexual assault while in college. There are more than 3,000 reports of forcible
sex offences reported on college campuses every year. The U.S. Department
of Education and its Office for Civil Rights regard these crimes as a serious
violation Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, commonly referred to
as Title IX, which was designed to prevent sexual discrimination in
education. Since 1972 a number of additional, related laws have been passed
with the goal of preventing and addressing sexual misconduct on school
campuses, including most recently the Campus Sexual Violence Elimination
(SaVE) Act. Failure to comply with these laws is also considered a violation of
Title IX. These laws and regulations are important for protecting students, but
they have created new and sometimes confusing obligations for schools and
their employees. This course will help employees understand Title IX and its
companion laws regarding sexual misconduct in education, and their role in
helping to prevent and respond to sexual misconduct. This course is designed
for all employees at educational institutions that fall under the provisions of
Title IX, with particular focus on those designated Responsible Employees. It is

Food Safety
Food. We like it. Smelling it, tasting it, feeling full of it, food is pretty key to our
happiness. But if youve ever had food poisoning, you know that food can
sometimes be very, very bad. In fact, food causes approximately 48 million
illnesses, 128,000 hospitalizations, and 3,000 deaths in the United States
each year. The sad thing is, the vast majority of those illnesses could have
easily been avoided if the people who handled and prepared the food had
followed proper food safety practices. After successfully completing this
course, the learner should be able to recognize the purpose of the FDAs Food
Code and identify the responsibilities of food employees regarding the
prevention of foodborne illness. This course is designed for all employees in
food service establishments and commercial kitchens, with particular
emphasis on those employees designated by the FDAs Food Code as food
employees and conditional employees.

Safety Data Sheets
Many employees in every industry work with potentially hazardous chemicals
every day. In order to help workers protect themselves from the chemical
hazards they may encounter on the job, the Occupational Safety and Health
Administration (OSHA) has adopted several rules requiring that employers and
chemical manufacturers provide information about chemicals in several
locations, including in a Safety Data Sheet, or SDS. SDSs help employees
understand the dangers of chemicals, how to obtain information on hazardous
materials, and how to assist co-workers if a spill or accident occurs. SDSs must
follow a standard format, and will always present certain information that
workers and emergency responders need. This course is intended to help
employees in any industry who work with chemicals to understand what
information is presented in the SDS and where to find it. After successfully
completing the course, learners should be able to identify the purpose and

Bloodborne Pathogens
Exposure to substances that could contain infectious agents is a common
worker hazard in the United States and abroad. Healthcare workers such as
physicians, nurses and technicians are commonly thought of as being at-risk;
however, building maintenance workers, social workers, food service and
housekeeping workers, childcare workers and teachers, administrative
personnel, and many other job types may also be at risk for exposure. The
Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), recognizes that many
employees come in contact with human blood or other potentially infectious
materials during daily duties and thus are potentially exposed to this
occupational hazard. OSHAs bloodborne pathogen standard has served as
the basis for implementing policies and practices to minimize workers risk of
exposure to BBP's, specifically to the Hepatitis B virus (HBV), the Hepatitis C
virus (HCV) and the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). This course will
teach employees about the hazards of bloodborne pathogens in the
workplace and the basic controls required under OSHAs bloodborne
pathogen standard. This course will teach employees about the hazards of
bloodborne pathogens in the workplace. Employees will learn how to identify

There are an estimated 270 million on-the-job injuries and illnesses among
private industry workers worldwide each year, almost all of which could have
been prevented. While training, personal protective equipment and other
preventive measures play an important role in incident prevention, safety
audits are a cornerstone of safe workplace culture. Safety audits can help
employers and their employees identify existing workplace hazards and create
appropriate controls to prevent injury or illness. This course is appropriate for
all workers and supervisors in general, construction, oil and gas, and other
industrial and office settings. This course does not address any specific OHS
training requirements, but is instead based on industry best practices and
accepted methods for performing effective safety audits.
