Faculty/Staff Training
Pursuant to the Provost's announcement of the Information Management Program in September 2007, a program of systematic training in handling confidential and private or sensitive University information has been created for KU employees with development assistance and contributions from campus-wide stakeholder representatives. The training is mandatory and must be completed within 60 calendar days of notification for all employees.
Initially, this training program will engage new employees of the Lawrence and Edwards campuses (those starting employment in January 2009). Pre-existing employees will begin participation in the mandatory training program starting the following fall or early winter. Email notification to eligible employees will commence starting the week of February 2, 2009.
