Mandated Training and Universal Precautions Training

Each year, all employees must complete a mandated back-to-school training around civil rights, bullying and harassment, special populations, abuse/neglect reporting, physical restraint, homeless education policies, and student records policies. This training also includes a section on Instructional materials review for Cultural Bias.

SPS also asks employees to go through key information regarding universal precautions around blood-borne pathogens.
