Unlawful Harassment Prevention for Higher Education Faculty

Higher Education institutions have unique challenges in both unlawful harassment situations and in harassment prevention training. Having worked with both large and small academic entities, Workplace Answers is well aware of these challenges. We have designed course content exclusively for teaching staff and professors that has been successfully deployed to tens of thousands of faculty members across the country, with special consideration of the unique First Amendment rights of academic employees and third party harassment situations regarding interacting with members of the public.

Course Highlights

• Storylines & scenarios set in actual academic settings – the Dean’s Office, the Office of Academic Affairs, etc.
• Characters in storylines have higher education job positions & work in appropriately named departments.
• Situations occur during typical academic activities – interacting with the public, attending public meetings, working off-site with community members, etc.
• College-focused third party harassment situations regarding interacting with members of the public.
• Explanation & special consideration of the unique First Amendment rights of academic employees.
