Annual Mandatory Anti-Harassment (TIX/DHR) and Conflict of Interest (COI) Training Due
Campus Colleagues, it is that time of year when we all need to ensure that we have completed our mandatory trainings as prescribed by Executive Order 1096 and CA Gov. Code, §12950.1.
Depending on your role, you are required to complete and are assigned one of the following CSULearn DHR/TIX courses:
- Supervisory employees must complete 2 hours of training once every two years (i.e. the CSULearn course Supervisor: Anti-Harassment, Discrimination).
Or - Non-supervisory employees must complete 1 hour of training annually (i.e. the CSULearn course Preventing Discrimination and Harassment for Non-Supervisors.
If you are indeed no longer in a supervisor role, please email Scott Kasper (scott.kasper@humboldt.edu) in Human Resources so you can be reassigned the Non-Supervisor training. EO 1096 also requires all employees to complete the 1 hour TIX course (i.e. the CSULearn course CSU’s Sexual Misconduct Prevention Program).
Conflict of Interest (COI). In addition, State law also mandates that designated employees and/or Principal Investigators (Gov Code, §81000, et seq.) must take an ethics training (Conflict of Interest) every two years or within six months.
If you are a supervisor, in a designated position and/or are a PI, you must complete these trainings as assigned in CSULearn. Human Resources will be sending the current overdue/pending due report to the President and Vice Presidents for distribution. We will also be sending reminder emails to Administrators and employees as well.
Please note that this message is intended for those who either have training assigned that is currently overdue or due to be completed by the end of the year.
Please don’t wait! HR is here to assist those who have questions or need assistance.

Navigating the Workplace with Emotional Intelligence
Any organization, regardless of its size, industry or location, is made up of people – people who interact on a daily basis, and not always without incident. Developing emotional intelligence within the organization is a key factor in ensuring that these relationships run smoothly. This is especially true of leaders, who must provide an example of how to behave in group settings. In this course, you’ll learn how building emotional intelligence, or EQ, can improve team or group interactions. You’ll also explore the role of emotional IQ in workplace activities, conflict and stress management, as well as employee influence and engagement.

Start With Why: How great leaders inspire everyone to take action
by Simon Sinek
Why are some people and organizations more innovative, more influential, and more profitable than others? Why do some command greater loyalty? In studying the leaders who've had the greatest influence in the world, Simon Sinek discovered that they all think, act, and communicate in the exact same way-and it's the complete opposite of what everyone else does. People like Martin Luther King Jr., Steve Jobs, and the Wright Brothers might have little in common, but they all started with why. Drawing on a wide range of real-life stories, Sinek weaves together a clear vision of what it truly takes to lead and inspire.
