91ÊÓƵ

All 91ÊÓƵ employees will be required to complete a new state-mandated fraud training program during the fall semester. The training program video takes less than 8 minutes to complete, and the training program as whole will take less than 11 minutes to complete.

The training program is focused on the state of Ohio’s fraud reporting system and provides information on the means of reporting fraud, waste and abuse. All state employees and elected officials will be required to complete the training by Oct. 29, 2024. 

For 91ÊÓƵ, this means that all faculty, staff and student employees, including graduate students, are required to complete the initial training by Oct. 29. Additionally, all future 91ÊÓƵ employees will be required to complete the training within 30 days of their employment. Thereafter, 91ÊÓƵ employees, as well as all state employees and elected officials, will be required to complete the training once every four years, according to the Ohio Revised Code.

The state of Ohio requires 100 percent participation in the training program.

The training website is not yet available, but 91ÊÓƵ is providing this notice today so that all OHIO offices and employees will be aware of the upcoming mandated training program.
