Understanding Harassment and Sexual Misconduct - Mandatory Online Training
At Sheffield Hallam, we’re committed to fostering a respectful, inclusive and safe university community. The Understanding Harassment and Sexual Misconduct module is designed to help you understand and respond to harassment, sexual misconduct and other harmful behaviours that can affect our campus environment.
Through real-life scenarios, you’ll explore:
- What constitutes harassment and sexual misconduct
- The impact of wider harmful behaviours
- Where to go for help and how to report concerns
This training is compulsory for all students and should be completed early in the academic year as part of your induction or welcome-back activities.
Completion of the online module is mandatory; however, we understand that in exceptional circumstances, you may not feel comfortable due to personal reasons. If this applies to you, you can opt out at the start of the module.
Together, we can create a safer, more respectful Hallam.

Looking After Yourself
The above topics can be distressing or triggering, so if you feel the content is too heavy or is making you feel unsafe, please stop reading.
It is important to be kind to yourself, take your time and seek help when you need to. It might help to have someone to talk to. If you don't have someone to talk to or need someone extra you can contact the Report and Support team (no obligation to make a report).
