Welcome to the 2012 Annual Legal and Policy Update

This site is for individuals who have been identified as having job responsibilities that require understanding of and compliance with DU policies and federal, state, or local laws and regulations.

Each year, employees who manage people and programs are asked to participate in the Annual Legal & Policy update. These employees play a key role in ensuring a positive and productive work environment at the University. Because the legal landscape around the University  continuously changes, this workshop is designed to inform managers, supervisors and ambassadors of the University about new or revised laws,  changes or updates to policies and practices, along with trends and forecasts related to the DU community.

Identified individuals were notified mid-October by email of their requirement to complete this annual workshop. Identified employees must (1) attend one of the instructor-led sessions OR (2) complete the online version of the workshop.
