Dear York Faculty
I am writing to remind you of CUNY's requirement that you complete the following annual trainings by May 30, 2025:
1. Ethics Training;
2. Workplace Violence Prevention Training;
3. Employee Sexual Misconduct Prevention and Response Training;
4. Cybersecurity Awareness Training
5. Gender-Based Violence Training (required if you are a supervisor)
These trainings are intended to reinforce CUNY's commitment to maintaining an atmosphere of mutual respect, civility, accountability and trust on our campus. If you are appointed or have tenure as a full-time instructional staff member or have a Certificate of Continuous Employment or a Certificate of Continual Administrative Service (13.3b) in a fulltime instructional staff position, you are expected to complete these required training during your regularly scheduled workday.
Active employees are automatically registered for the trainings in Blackboard. Employees can sign into their CUNY Blackboard account and navigate to My Organizations to view and complete both the ESPARC and WVP trainings. Employees also required to complete the Gender Based Violence Training will find the course listed under My Organizations in Blackboard. Step-by-step instructions for completing the trainings can be found on the course Announcements page.
Please feel free to contact me should you have questions or concerns.
Thank you,
R. Carmel Boyle
