  COVID-19 prevention

  The systemwide training materials were updated to reflect Cal/OSHA changes to the 8 CCR 3205 Re-adoption documents adopted 12/15/22. We have also saved previous of the training for historical purposes. Existing staff do not need retraining on old information; and are expected to receive updated content via combination of campus communications and/or training materials. New staff (who never completed the old version) will need to complete the updated version; available as of 04/25/23. Resources for both were rolled out systemwide in April 2023.
