All Ohio University employees, including faculty, staff, graduate and undergraduate students, and program employees, who receive a paycheck from Ohio University must complete a fraud reporting training program during the fall semester.

The training is required by the state of Ohio, and all OHIO units are already seeing very positive progress. The video for the state mandated training program takes less than 8 minutes to complete, and the training program as whole will take less than 11 minutes to complete.

• Faculty, staff and program employees can take the training program here.
• Student employees can take the training program here.

The training is focused on the state of Ohio’s fraud reporting system and provides information on the means of reporting fraud, waste and abuse. All state employees and elected officials in the state of Ohio are required to complete the training by Oct. 29, 2024.  

Any employees, including student employees, who have questions about the training program are encouraged to talk with their supervisors or contact their Human Resources representatives.
