University employees must complete ethics training by 5 p.m. Nov. 12.

The State Officials and Employees Ethics Act requires full-time and part-time, regular and temporary faculty, staff, graduate assistants, extra help and student employees to complete online ethics training. Individuals who receive an email from the Ethics Training Office must participate. Those who have not received an email or campus mail should contact Human Resources Ethics Training administrator at 815-753-6039 for assistance.

Ethics training uses modules to cover topics on conflict of interest, whistleblower protection and inappropriate use of university resources.

Employees who do not comply with annual training may be fined or disciplined in accordance with the Office of the Executive Inspector General.
