Our Commitment, Our Responsibility: Together For A Safe, Ethical Campus

Our commitment to maintaining a safe, ethical and inclusive campus environment is unwavering. We believe that a safe and ethical campus is not only a responsibility; it's a collective effort that requires all of us to work together.

As employees, each of us play a vital role in shaping the future of our campus, and that starts with staying informed and up-to-date on our mandatory compliance training. Log in to CSULearn TODAY!

Remember, "Our Commitment, Our Responsibility, Together for a Safe, Ethical Campus" isn't just a tagline; it's a call to action. When you receive notice that a required training is due, it's essential to make the time to complete it before the deadline. Failure to complete these mandatory trainings not only jeopardizes the safety and ethical standing of our campus but may also have consequences for your professional standing.

We understand that finding a quiet place to complete your training can sometimes be a challenge. If you're facing difficulties finding a quiet place or time, please don't hesitate to contact us at up-training@sjsu.edu. We are here to help and can arrange for you to join one of our open labs.

Our 2023 labs schedule:
Tuesday, November 7 - 9:30am - 11:30am
Thursday, November 17 - 2:00pm - 4:00pm
Tuesday, December 12 - 9:30am - 11:30am
Friday, December 15 - 2:00pm - 4:00pm

If you encounter issues logging in to your CSULearn compliance training course(s), send us an email at csulearn@sjsu.edu for assistance. We’re more than happy to help.

Thank you for your commitment to a safe and ethical campus.
