The University of Houston now is offering online employment discrimination training, and employees will be able to access the new training program soon.

Faculty and staff will receive an email from uhs_online@central.uh.edu in a few weeks that will provide them with the Web site address, where they can complete the required training. Texas law mandates that all state employees undergo employment discrimination training every two years.

To access training, faculty and staff must have their employee identification number, which can be found on their pay stub or by contacting the Department of Human Resources’ Customer Service section at 713-743-4418. After viewing either the text-only presentation or the streaming video presentation, employees will be required to successfully complete a ten-question quiz.
