Required Prevention Modules

Sexual Assault Prevention for Graduate Students

The Sexual Assault Prevention modules address ways graduate students can help foster a safe, supportive community, and cover important topics such as identifying forms of violence, understanding relevant laws and policies, interrupting harm, responding to disclosures of violence, and accessing support resources. 

Accessing the Modules

Incoming graduate students will receive an email from Vector Solutions (@safecolleges.com) in their USF Outlook email within the first few weeks of the semester. This email will include a personal link and instructions for completing the required Sexual Assault Prevention modules.

The course consists of two parts, with Part 2 becoming available 30 days after completing Part 1. The modules are disseminated to incoming students twice a year: once at the beginning of fall for all new fall and summer students, and once at the beginning of spring for all new spring students.
