ƵSafe Title IX Training FAQs


Completing the Training


Who is Required to Take the Training?

Yes, Title IX training is an annual requirement for all students, employees, and volunteers and is refined and updated with new information each year.

No. If you are affiliated with multiple campuses, please take the training through the campus you are primarily affiliated with. If you are primarily affiliated with the ƵSystem Office, UAA, or UAS, you should complete your annual training in Blackboard, and if you are primarily affiliated with Ƶ, please complete the training in Canvas.

The Blackboard and Canvas trainings are the same, and completions are documented in the official training record in Banner, which is accessible to all three campus Title IX Coordinators. If you or a supervisor have questions regarding your training completion, you may contact your Title IX Coordinator.

No. If you have attended an official live/in-person Title IX training hosted by your Title IX Office after July 1st, 2025, you have fulfilled your training requirements for the July 1st, 2025 - June 30th, 2026 training cycle and do not need to take an online version of the training.

New students, employees, and volunteers should take the training as soon as possible to ensure that they are not out of compliance. New employees must complete the training within 30 days of hire and new volunteers must complete the training prior to their volunteer service.

This is different from the information and required processes individuals are trained on elsewhere.
