Standard & Procedure Name:Required Education Courses
Scope:All Staff & Associates
Revision Date:May 23, 2023
Last Review Date:June 9, 2023

2023 Annual Required Education

For existing Reliant Staff and Associates:

  • You will be assigned the courses on June 1, 2023.
  • They are due by July 31, 2023.

Reliant staff are dedicated to furthering the Gospel and are committed to upholding high standards of ethical, professional, and Christian behavior. Nevertheless, it is necessary on a regular basis to remind ourselves of how we should ensure that all individuals, including staff, volunteers, and those to whom we minister, are treated with honor, respect, and dignity as image-bearers of God. For this reason, all Reliant staff will need to complete annual training courses on harassment prevention and child abuse awareness.


Overview of Required Courses

All courses are web-based and do not need to be completed in one session. The majority of these courses include quizzes and will be completed on LEARN. Find out more about LEARN.

For new staff, training will take about 3.5 hours. For new staff who are in supervisor or leadership roles, there will be additional training that will take about 45 minutes and will include modules specifically for managers on preventing sexual harassment and discrimination in the workplace.

For most existing staff, annual training will take just over 2 hours. For descriptions of who is a supervisor or leader, see Role Definitions.
