Training for New Employees
Required training:
Child Sexual Abuse Prevention Training
In accordance with Utah Code UCA 53A-13-112, Alpine School District must provide training and instruction on Child Sexual Abuse Prevention and Awareness to school personnel in elementary and secondary schools, AND to parents or guardians of elementary school students.
Who must be trained at the school?
All new and existing personnel (ages 18+) in elementary and secondary schools must be trained and certified. Principals should verify employee completion of training via a copy of the completion certificate presented by the employee. Both parties should keep a copy of the certificate. The certificate expires after two years. The school must maintain a record of completed certification, expirations, and when re-certification is due.
The School Completion Report is Due to Student Services by January 31, 2020. The school administrator must send a copy of the personnel roster indicating completion of the training to Student Services, [email protected] no later than this date. An Excel Template is preferred.
Who should be provided the training link in the Elementary School Community?
Elementary School Principals must provide a message to the parent/guardian that includes the training link for parents to access the child abuse training. Parent participation is optional.
A school district or charter may provide training to elementary (K-6) students. If a school district chooses to provide training to students, it must notify parents and guardians of the upcoming training with instructions on how instructional materials may be previewed. Parents must be notified of the right to excuse (in writing) their student from the training. Schools may not provide training to students whose parent/guardian has excused them from the training. Approved K-6 classroom lessons are available from: Prevent Child Abuse Utah: http://www.preventchildabuseutah.org or contact Gwen Knight (801) 834-3807
