The date to complete the University’s required trainings is October 31, 2019. If you received an “Action required” email from the HR Service Center on September 27, 2019, you still need to complete one or more of the three required courses. Your training requirement is not met until all required training appears on your Learning Transcript in MyLearn.

To determine which courses to complete by the deadline, follow these steps:

1. Log in to myLearn (https://umsystem.skillport.com) using your University username and password.
2. Access your myLearn transcript, available under “My Profile” in the top right-hand corner (review instructions for accessing your transcript (PDF)).
3. Identify which of the following courses have not been completed as of July 1, 2019, or later:
   • Building a Foundation: Discrimination Prevention and Title IX
   • University of Missouri System Campus Emergency Alert
   • Global Cybersecurity Basics (MakeITSafe)
4. Complete the required courses by October 31.
   • Click on the title of the course you have not completed as of July 1, 2019.
