USD requires all students and employees to complete Sexual Assault Prevention training on an annual basis to promote healthier and safer campus environment for everyone. Additionally, the university is required under federal law (specifically, Title IX of the Educational Amendments of 1972 and the Campus Sexual Violence Elimination Act, also known as the “Campus SaVE Act”) to administer training on sexual misconduct and relationship violence to all students and employees on an annual basis.

The workplace harassment content has been combined with the Title IX content into one module to meet both training requirements.
