Mandatory Training
Training is an important part of an effective compliance program and is just as important as having well-designed departmental and campuswide operational controls to mitigate risks. Training and education ensure university community members understand their responsibilities and requirements under UC policies and state and federal laws. For this reason, UC requires specific training for all employees, including student employees.
