Annual Employee Compliance Training Program
Federal regulations, state laws, and campus policies mandate that all employees complete mandatory in-person or online compliance training on various essential topics. These topics include Ethics, Security Awareness, Sexual Harassment Prevention, Title VI, Workplace and Gender-Based Violence Prevention, Title IX, and more.
Employees will have the full academic year (September - May) to complete the majority of training courses. You can complete the courses based on the needs of your own schedules, with a few exceptions (see Annual Compliance Training Matrix).
There are a few training courses that must be completed in person, which are the Comprehensive Ethics Training (must be completed in person every other year) and the ODE/Title IX course. Human Resources will contact you to schedule your live Comprehensive Ethics Training. The live Title IX training will be scheduled by the department in coordination with the TItle IX Office.
Accessing the Trainings
- The majority of your annual compliance training is available online and can be completed at your convenience through the Biz Library Learning Management Platform.
- The Cybersecurity Awareness Training is is available online and can be completed through the KnowBe4 Platform. For any issues accessing the Security Awareness Training, please send information to CIT using this link.

- Mandatory Employee Title VI Training
SUNY Geneseo continues to work to ensure a safe and inclusive climate on our campus, promoting a sense of belonging and respect for all campus members. SUNY is also striving to advance our shared goal of protecting students, faculty, and staff from discrimination and harassment through robust implementation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
Chancellor John B. King, Jr. has announced that every faculty and staff member is required to complete Title VI training. This training reiterates that Title VI specifically applies to antisemitism and Islamophobia and underscores the need for campuses to prevent, investigate, and respond to allegations of discrimination.
All faculty and staff are required to complete the online training by no later than September 30.
The training is available on our campus learning and development platform, BizLibrary. It will take approximately 30 minutes to complete, and it includes an end-of-course assessment.
