Mandatory Thematic Training is now available for all Boards to complete.
Please note below that the majority of Municipal Board members have been given the deadline of September 30th to complete.
To all Board members, the CSPA contains a requirement for all board members including members of police service boards, opted-in First Nation boards, Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) detachment boards, First Nation OPP Boards, and members of board committees to complete the Minister-approved training (Thematic Training):
- Regarding human rights and systemic racism;
- Promoting recognition and respect for the diverse, multicultural, and multiracial nature of Ontario society; and,
- Promoting recognition and respect for the rights and cultures of First Nation, Inuit, and Métis peoples.
These four e-learning courses approved by the Minister are delivered online, self-directed (learn at your own pace), and available in English (French version to follow). It is anticipated that learners will be able to complete the training in under eight hours.
Training will be available starting on August 30th on the Ontario Police College Virtual Academy (OPCVA). Learners without a student number can contact the Ontario Police College Registration office at opc.registrar@ontario.ca for assistance with setting up a profile for training access.
