Harassment training generally consists of teaching respondents how to avoid liability from sexual harassment complaints.  This is especially true in trainings designed for supervisors and managers.  The EEOC has found that true prevention begins with management and focuses on teaching leadership how to create a respectful and civil workplace.  This course will give suggestions and ideas on how to create a culture of civility in your workplace.  

Program Learning Objectives:

• Learn why harassment prevention starts with a respectful workplace
• How leadership and accountability can prevent harassment  
• Define civility in the workplace
• Understand how an uncivil workplace can lead to an EEOC charge
• Determine if there is a need to create a culture of civility and respect in their workplace
• Develop ideas and plans that would create a culture of civility in a workplace
