Create a Custom Harassment Prevention Course

 

For Harassment Prevention trainings, requirements may vary by state or region and can include:

  • Required knowledge checks
  • Interactive elements
  • Coverage of specific laws or definitions
  • Minimum time requirements

If you make changes to a course, those changes may affect compliance.

  • Light copy edits typically do not materially impact compliance.
  • Changing slide templates, removing sections, or swapping videos may affect required timing or legal coverage.

We recommend reviewing all changes carefully before assigning a customized Harassment Prevention course.

Legal Tags & Compliance Considerations

US Harassment Prevention courses feature Legal Tags:

  • Location: Bottom left corner of legally required slides
  • Purpose: Identify content required for legal compliance
  • Review required: Before making significant changes. Light copy edits do not materially impact compliance, but changing slides, removing sections, or swapping videos may affect required timing or legal coverage.

Compliance impact by edit type:

Lower risk (typically compliant):

  • Minor text edits for clarity
  • Adding organization-specific examples
  • Simple image replacements
  • Non-substantive formatting changes

Higher risk (may affect compliance):

  • Removing slides with Legal Tags
  • Changing interactive elements or knowledge checks
  • Deleting legally mandated content sections
  • Altering definitions of protected categories

Template Limitations

Some slide templates have editing restrictions:

  • Identified by: Label in the bottom left corner of the editor
  • Workaround: Copy content to a new supported slide
  • Alternative: Contact support for assistance
