Education and Training Resources

Mandatory Employee Compliance Training

Compliance training is administered by the Division of Legal Affairs and Compliance. The training is  accessed through our learning management system (LMS), My Learning Connection.

All employees are required to complete the Mandatory Employee Compliance Training curriculum within 30 calendar days of their hire date, and every three years thereafter. This requirement is addressed under University Policies section 2.2.1 Discrimination and Harassment Training Policy. Completion of the training is important because it supports compliance efforts and the University's commitment to provide all members of our community a place of study and work free from discrimination and harassment.

All required employees are automatically enrolled in the Mandatory Employee Compliance Training, and are notified by email with instructions for accessing the training through My Learning Connection.

  • For assistance accessing the training, contact Human Resources Learning at HRLearning@MissouriState.edu. Online Help Guides are available below for both employees and supervisors:

    • Supervisor Help Guide: Instructions for supervisors on how to retrieve compliance training reports in My Learning Connection to monitor their employees progress in completing assigned training.

Employees should consult supervisors regarding an approved time or location to complete the training during scheduled work hours.

Conducting a Legal and Effective Search Training

All Search Committee Chairs and Department Approvers are required to complete the search training conducted by the Office for Institutional Equity and Compliance within 12 months prior to the commencement of a search. While it is not mandatory that all members of a search committee attend the training, it is advisable to ensure that all members are aware of the search processes and the necessary requirements that must be followed for a legal and effective search.
