University’s Employee Sexual Misconduct Prevention and Response Course (ESPARC) and Workplace Violence Prevention Training (WVP)
The University’s Employee Sexual Misconduct Prevention and Response Course(ESPARC) and Workplace Violence Prevention Training (WVP) are available for employees for the 2023-2024 academic year.  
 
For ESPARC and for WVP, all part-time employees, including adjuncts, are responsible for completing both training courses by the end of the current semester to ensure their completion is logged by the University. Inactive employees on a short work break or leave of absence in CUNYfirst will not have access to the courses. All full-time employees will have until Friday, May 31st to complete the training. 
 
While it is encouraged that employees complete the training online, live sessions on your campus may be conducted, if needed. As always, administrators would be responsible for keeping track of attendance during the live sessions and manually entering the grade for the participants in Blackboard for proper tracking to occur. PowerPoint presentations on this matter can be found here.
 
If you have questions about these trainings should be sent by email to Human.Resources@lehman.cuny.edu.
We oversee all educational programs; faculty matters; accreditation reviews; strategic planning; and the review of division and departmental budgets. Questions?
