Equity and Diversity

We have extended the deadline to complete the Mandatory Employee Sexual Harassment Prevention Training to Tuesday, October 19th, 2021.  The deadline has been extended to provide employees and student employees with more time to complete the training as we adapt to using a different compliance training system. It also takes into account that completion of this training is required in order to be considered for discretionary awards. New York State enacted legislation in 2018 requiring all employers, including Buffalo State College, to ensure that their employees complete sexual harassment prevention training annually. The Equity and Campus Diversity Office has developed a 20-minute online program that meets all New York State requirements for sexual harassment prevention training. The training must be completed online using BizLibrary no later than Tuesday, October 19th, 2021.

We are excited to announce that we will be using BizLibrary, an online employee training system, for the training this year. Employees can log in to BizLibrary to complete the training by following these steps:
