The University of California requires completion of the General Compliance Briefing: UC Ethical Values and Conduct training for all UC employees who are not extramurally funded researchers.  This briefing is designed to raise continued awareness of the University of California Statement of Ethical Values and Standards of Ethical Conduct, and to convey University employment obligations with respect to ethical and compliant behavior. The purpose is not to teach University policy or ethics but to familiarize UC employees with important ethics and compliance information, issues and resources. In addition, this briefing will provide information about reporting instances of non-compliance. The training is available through the UC Learning Center (login required). The course is available in English and Spanish.

Those in research positions and that received more than $1 in extramural funds in the prior year will be required to complete the UC Ethics and Compliance Briefing for Researchers instead of the General Compliance: UC Ethical Values and Conduct training.
