Welcome.
This is the home page for Illinois Required Training Solutions’ 2023 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.
