OpenSesame Offers Free Sexual Harassment and Abusive Conduct Prevention Course Online

PORTLAND, Ore., April 12, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- OpenSesame, the leader in on-demand elearning courses for the enterprise, is partnering with publisher WILL Interactive to raise awareness about preventing sexual harassment and abusive conduct prevention by offering a free course during the entire month of April.

April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month (SAAM) in the United States. The mission of SAAM is to raise public awareness and to educate individuals, communities and businesses on how to prevent sexual violence and verbal assault. In support of SAAM efforts and to raise awareness of resources to help prevent sexual harassment specifically in the workplace, OpenSesame will be offering free access to a learning course on the subject in conjunction with WILL Interactive during the month of April.

"Everyone should be able to guarantee a safe and harassment free workplace for employees, and it starts with education. We are happy that we can support SAAM in the month of April by providing access to this course to anyone who wants to learn how to prevent these types of occurrences happening in their community and amongst employees," said Don Spear, CEO of OpenSesame.

Most states in the United States require employees to undergo sexual harassment prevention training as part of a new hire onboarding process. Laws around documentation of that training vary from state to state and are regularly updated, with some states even requiring that supervisors receive documented training every year on how to recognize sexual harassment and steps to take to protect victims.

As distributed by OpenSesame, Will Interactive's Sexual Harassment Prevention Course discusses the recognition of sexual harassment and strategies to prevent it. The course also outlines additional resources and protection that is available to employees. The Employee version of this course is a best practice recommendation for non-supervisory employees to be in compliance with the legal statutes in all 50 states.

Access the 60-minute online course on the OpenSesame website and use the promotion code APRIL100 upon checkout. The course is recommended for use on desktops and laptops and can be considered to meet corporate needs for sexual harassment prevention training and documentation for employees.
