Sexual Misconduct Prevention Online Training

Summer 2020 Update: Please note that newly admitted students will receive an invitation to participate in the Everfi Sexual Misconduct Prevention and Education training prior to the start of the fall 2020 semester. An email invitation containing instructions for completing the training will come directly from Everfi, our university partner for online education.


The University of Delaware has collaborated with EverFi, whose mission is to help address sexual misconduct prevention in higher education institutions across the country. EverFi has an educational module, “Sexual Assault Prevention for…”, geared toward three groups: Undergraduate Students, Graduate Students, and Faculty & Staff. All employees and students are required to complete this special online training course as part of the University’s sexual misconduct policy. This training was previously referred to as “Haven” or “Haven Plus” and is now referred to as kNOw MORE online training.

Topics such as sex discrimination, sexual harassment, dating and domestic violence, and stalking are covered in the course, along with details on specific UD policies and resources.

New students and newly hired employees are required to take this training within 30 days.  Retraining for employees is required in the fall of every odd year to meet with state and federal guidelines.  Additionally, the Office of Institutional Equity offers training classes upon request and when important policy changes take effect.

Please follow the links to the left for information on your mandatory online training, including troubleshooting help and frequently asked questions.

Once you have completed your kNOw MORE online training, you are encouraged to take the kNOw MORE pledge to further demonstrate your commitment to sexual misconduct awareness!

Title IX is a federal law that prohibits sex discrimination in the University’s programs and activities and applies in sexual misconduct cases that include sexual assault, sexual harassment, dating violence, domestic violence and stalking by anyone on University property.

Dear Incoming Student,

Welcome to UD!  As a Blue Hen, we want you to be all that you possibly can be! That is why we want to assist you in making the most informed and responsible decisions about your health and safety while you spend time on our campuses.

UD requires every incoming student to complete the online educational course kNOw MORE – Sexual Misconduct Prevention. EverFi uses video-based “What would you do?” scenarios to model protective behaviors and intervention strategies for students. Additional scenarios help guide students through the process of helping a friend who is a victim of sexual violence. The goal of this education is to increase awareness and protective factors, prevent such crimes from occurring, apprehend assailants, and provide prompt and compassionate support services to victims. We hope that you will gain new insights from this program. It will also tell you more about the resources that are available here at the University of Delaware such as confidential victim advocacy and healthy relationships counseling through Student Wellness and Health Promotion.

If you have any questions or concerns about this course, please email knowmore@udel.edu or contact the Office of Equity & Inclusion at 302-831-8063. We understand that the topic of sexual assault may include triggers for some students and we encourage you to call in advance of taking the course, or to use the resources that are included in the program, should you experience discomfort during the course.

One resource we would like to highlight is S.O.S., Sexual Offense Support.  If you experience a trigger or are uncomfortable during the course, you can speak with the S.O.S. victim advocate by calling 302-831-1001, (UD Helpline 24/7). The person who answers your call will take a first name and phone number and the advocate will call you back within 10 minutes.  This service is available 24 hours a day, and advocates are trained to understand the discomfort you may be experiencing and will provide you with personalized, sensitive support.

Participation in kNOw MORE online training is mandatory. Please be aware that if you fail to complete kNOw MORE in a timely manner, a hold will be placed on your account preventing you from registering for Winter/Spring classes. Included below are detailed instructions on how to access this program. You may begin logging into the course on (Date TBD), and Part 1 must be completed before (Date TBD).

If you are receiving this correspondence AFTER (Date TBD), your personal access to the course will remain open until (Date TBD). Please complete the requirements by (Date TBD).

Leadership opportunities and organizations including S.O.S. and Men Advocating for Societal & Cultural Change are also provided. There are many different organizations to get involved with; we look forward to seeing you at our events throughout the year!

As a Blue Hen, your commitment to yourself comes with a shared commitment to the health and welfare of others.
