Sexual Harassment Training
All of your employees should have received Sexual Harassment Training pursuant to SB 1343 and SB 778. Newly hired employees must receive the training within 30 days of hire or within their first 100 hours of work, whichever comes first.
This training must be received every two years. If you initially trained your employees in 2019, it is time to train again!
Sexual Harassment Training is not transferrable between companies – even with a certificate of completion. You are responsible for training all staff as per the guidelines above.
Developed with our Network Partner The Works Consulting, our interactive, video-on-demand sexual harassment training for both employees (1 hour) and supervisors (2 hours) is convenient and will help you get into compliance. The CALSAGA training meets all of the requirements of the California legislation. A Training Certificate will be provided to each individual who completes the webinar and will be emailed to the purchaser of the training upon participant completion.

Officer Training Compliance
A major update to the CALSAGA Security Officer Training Materials was completed in 2021. Training is available for purchase exclusively by CALSAGA members through the CALSAGA Member Portal.
If you have already purchased the materials, simply log in to the CALSAGA Member Portal and click on the Training tab. Select download links under the CALSAGA Security Officer Training Modules heading to download the updated materials.
In addition to Sexual Harassment Training (which all employees and supervisors must have!), CALSAGA offers a variety of security officer training to meet your needs:
- Security Officer Training Materials which were designed for classroom training but can be utilized as you see fit/as the law permits (training via web-platform, on post training, self-study, etc.) – Available for purchase only by CALSAGA Members
- School Security Training Materials – remember that as of 7/1/21, the law requires any officer working on the property of a school district, charter school, county office of education, or community college district must complete the School Security Training course regardless of the number of hours worked per week.
- Online Security Officer Training Courses through ProtaTECH, CALSAGA’s Online Training Provider
