The NIH Bystander Training for Supervisors supports ICs with their Anti-Harassment Training Plans. This live, two-hour training teaches participants bystander-intervention techniques that encourage respect, civility, and fairness in the workplace. This training helps employees find their voice to positively shape the culture of their work environments and provides them with the tools they need to become active bystanders.
