Preventing Sexual Harassment: Everyone's Problem, Everyone's Responsibility
and
Preventing Employment Discrimination
These are training modules that you can complete on-line even before you arrive on campus! If you cannot complete them before
you arrive please be sure to complete them by the end of the 1st week of semester classes.
These are Internet-based programs so they are available to you at any time. You may access it from your home, office, a computer
lab, or any location where you have an Internet connection. After you complete the training modules, you will be asked to
complete a Mastery Test. To document completion of your training you must pass the Mastery Test and provide your first and
last names, your BGSU student ID Number, and select your academic department from the Department/Work Unit menu. Students
serving as Teaching Assistants should select the Faculty category. All others, or if you are not sure of your assistantship assignment, should select Student.
It is recommended that you complete the training module on Preventing Sexual Harassment first and then do the Preventing Employment
Discrimination training. Here is the web site to access the PSH training: http://www.newmedialearning.com/psh/bowlinggreen/index.htm After you have completed the PSH training you can go directly to the PED training web site at: http://www.newmedialearning.com/ped/bowlinggreen/index.htm.
