Welcome.
This is the home page for Illinois Required Training Solutions’ 2023-2024 Chicago Bystander Intervention Training, part of a course bundle that contains annual sexual harassment training for Illinois employees as well as containing the specialized content required for workers within the City of Chicago.
This course meets and exceeds the bystander intervention training requirement of Chicago Ordinance 2022-665. This Ordinance changed the Chicago city municipal code to require that every worker in Chicago receive one hour of bystander intervention training, in addition to their required sexual harassment prevention training, every year.
This course requires one hour (60 minutes) of time spent with the course content. It does NOT have to be completed all in one sitting. Some people take longer depending on their preferred learning speed. The course has no maximum time limit to complete.

How do I start taking the course?
If you’ve already purchased
If you’ve already purchased the Chicago Bundle for yourself, go to your My Courses tab of My Dashboard and click Launch Course to start training with either course.
If an employer or client has purchased for you
If your employer sent you a link for a pre-paid training course, click on that link to start training.
If you’ve previously trained with us AND your device is currently logged in to our system OR you are training on shared equipment AND you received a link for a NEW prepaid training course or bundle, you will be asked to click on the provided link TWICE to attach the new course or bundle to your student account.
The first click will log you out. Don’t log back in at this point, but instead click again as instructed in the pop-up message.
The second click will give you a redemption screen where you redeem the new prepaid course or bundle by logging back in as a Returning User.
If you don’t see the new course(s) listed under your My Courses tab, you may not have clicked the link twice as instructed above. Just do so again, following the instructions on screen.
Once you have redeemed a prepaid link for a course bundle, ALL the bundled courses will appear in your My Courses tab. Clicking on the link after redemption will report that the link has already been used. Simply log in to the system and start or resume training from the My Courses tab.
If you’ve purchased but need something different
If your My Courses tab of My Dashboard shows the undesired course(s) only, don't click or tap Launch Course, but rather email help@requiredtrainingsolutions.com to request an immediate refund, then (re)purchase the preferred course/bundle. Currently offered training courses that have not been started are fully refundable. Outdated/obsolete training courses that have not been started are fully transferable.
We're here to help, please just reach out. Please see our Terms and Conditions for full information on cancellations and refunds.

What Can I Expect From This Course or Course Bundle?
You'll do a lot of reading at your own pace, and a lot of clicking or tapping.
We're required to make our courses interactive and individualized, so we present material in small chunks, but as fast as you want to see it. Don't worry, you don't have to complete the course all in one sitting. If you need a break or to take care of something, feel free to step away. While the system will time you out if you don't click or tap on anything for about ten minutes, every click or tap is saving your place and your progress.

You'll see a lot of cute pictures of animals.
We don't serve up a lot of cringeworthy pictures of people doing creepy things to others. We're willing to bet you already know what creepy is, so we spare you the visuals.
We won't show you icky videos.
For the same reason we don't show you ugly and possibly triggering pictures, we don't use videos in this course or in any of our sexual harassment prevention training or related courses. Because the book is always better than the movie, we prefer to teach by positive example rather than making trainees squirm in discomfort. We know you'll appreciate this.

We won't show you icky videos.
For the same reason we don't show you ugly and possibly triggering pictures, we don't use videos in this course or in any of our SHPT or related courses. Because the book is always better than the movie, we prefer to teach by positive example rather than making trainees squirm in discomfort. We know you'll appreciate this.
The first few lessons teach you how to take the course.
We use the first few lessons to explain how to use the course controls, and there's a sample quiz to teach you how to take a quiz. If you've taken one of our courses previously, this will all be familiar and you can skip through the intro part. You'll be into the meat of the content quickly.
There are quizzes and a final exam.
But don't worry, all our quizzes, including the final exam, are retest-until-pass. We don't count how many times anyone retakes any quiz. And we always explain the quiz answers, including why the right answer is right and the other answer choices are wrong. So it's easy to get 100% on our courses.
Course completion certificates are issued immediately.
The instant a trainee successfully completes one of our training courses, they are taken to the Achievements tab of the My Dashboard control panel, where certificates of completion are linked in PDF format for immediate download simply by clicking on the course name. Print, email, save or file as desired. No waiting for an email that might take days to arrive or get stuck in spam or junk.
There's an online help resource.
In case you should need it, help is one click away. Feel free to open the link and leave it open in another window or bookmark it if you'd like.
