Online Module

This online module aims to educate the University community on the area of Consent, including sexual and non-sexual relationships, to ensure that all parts of the university are clear on consent. This module is primarily aimed at the student body, but we would encourage staff to access this resource, ensuring that we are leading by example when it comes to Understanding Consent.

Introductory Module

We encourage all staff to complete the introductory online module that can be found through the Staff Learning and Development portal. This module will give you the foundations for supporting students who disclose an incident to you. If this is something that is likely to happen in your role (i.e you are in a student-facing, support capacity for example), we would encourage you to also book onto the longer, interactive session.

2-hour Interactive Session

We recommend that any student-facing staff particularly with a pastoral element to their role complete the 2-hour session with us to build confidence in responding to disclosures. We will be offering Teams sessions across the year.

Tuesday 28th October 10-12 noon

Tuesday 25th November 10-12 noon 

Tuesday 16th December 10-12 noon

Booking is via the Training Catalogue course: A&R003 Responding to disclosures here.
