Student Awareness & Prevention Training

Welcome to San Jacinto College! We’d like to inform you about an important subject that unfortunately affects many students. San Jacinto College prohibits all students and all college employees from engaging in sexual misconduct. Sexual misconduct is behavior of a sexual nature that is hostile, unwelcome, and intimidating. Words and phrases associated with sexual misconduct are: sexual assault, sexual harassment, dating violence, domestic violence, or stalking.

Certain state and federal laws exist to guide students about how to report incidents of sexual misconduct and protect students who have experienced sexual misconduct. The same laws also guide colleges in the handling and investigation of these types of incidents.

Training Requirements

Did you know that, in the state of Texas, new college students are required to be trained about a college’s sexual misconduct policy during the first term of enrollment? San Jacinto College has answered that need and requires all students to take an online training titled “Sexual Misconduct Policy – Prevention and Awareness.”

San Jac students are also required to complete a training called “Voices for Change.” It is an online training designed to create awareness and encourage prevention of: sexual assault, sexual harassment, dating violence, domestic violence, and stalking. The online program also covers the role of alcohol in these circumstances, bystander intervention and offers resources available to our students.

These trainings are required before registering for classes in a future term or semester. Watching the Sexual Misconduct Policy video and completing the Voices for Change Awareness and Prevention Training during your first term at San Jacinto College is required. If you have not completed these requirements, an NA hold (Sexual Misconduct Awareness) will appear in your student account. The NA hold will restrict you from registering for a future term. Once you complete the video and the online training, allow 2 hours for your hold to be released, or you can visit the campus and ask an academic advisor or educational planner to release the hold. Please be prepared to provide a valid copy of your completion certificate. A valid paper copy or a valid viewable copy on your phone or device will be accepted.
