Mandatory TITLE IX SHAPE (“Sexual Harassment and Anti-Discrimination Prevention Education”) TRAINING

The UC Sexual Violence and Harassment, Anti-Discrimination, Prevention and Education (SHAPE) course is available for students to complete through Bruin Learn.

All students must complete the Sexual Violence and Harassment, Anti-Discrimination, Prevention and Education (SHAPE) training as required by the University of California.

For students who were not previously assigned the training in Winter 2026 and were newly assigned the training in Spring 2026, the deadline to complete the training is MAY 26, 2026.

Failure to complete the training by the designated due date will result in a hold on your UCLA student account, which will restrict access to services such as registration, enrollment, and recreational facilities. If your deadline to complete the SHAPE training was APRIL 6, 2026, you now have a hold on your student account! Holds are typically lifted within 2–3 business days after training completion.

UCLA is committed to maintaining a safe and respectful campus environment, free from sex discrimination, sexual harassment, and sexual violence. As part of this commitment, all UC students are required to complete the SHAPE course.
