As a University of Illinois employee, you are required to complete ethics training on an annual basis. This year's course focuses on relevant issues and events as they relate to the State Officials and Employees Ethics Act, Illinois Executive Order 15-09 and the Illinois Human Rights Act.

 The training is available until 5:00 PM Central Time on October 31, 2024.

Anyone who does not complete the course in its entirety will be considered noncompliant and disciplined in accordance with established policies and procedures.
