Individual Compliance

To meet the policy compliance requirement for training, prior to interaction with minors in Vanderbilt programs and operations, all staff, faculty, students, and others with VUNET ID access must complete the Oracle Learning "Protection of Minors 101" training module.

To access this training

1. Log in to Oracle Learning using your VUNET ID and password, then select the "Learning Hub" Icon (Tile with a white triangle in a circle).
   • If the course is not listed in your enrolled learning, at the bottom left of the page, select the search icon, which will open the ability to search the whole catalog. Search for the training in the search box by typing "Protection of Minors."
2. After locating Protection of Minors 101, review the course information and select "enroll" to begin the module. Please allow 40 minutes for completion.

Completion of the initial Protection of Minors 101 course will meet both training and policy compliance requirements for those working or interacting with minors in Vanderbilt programs. Policy agreement is incorporated into the module electronically. After completion, you will receive a confirmation email and can also view your completion in the "View Transcript" section. If you take a break, resume by returning to the "My Current Learning" section later.

If you continue interaction with minors in Vanderbilt programs and operations, you will need to annually renew your training compliance for the Protection of Minors not later than 365 days after completion of the POM 101 module. To do this, navigate to Oracle Learning, and select the "Learning Hub" icon on the menu page (tile with a white triangle in a circle). Search for the course by moving to the bottom left of the page and selecting the search icon, which will open the ability to search the whole catalog. Search for "Protection of Minors Annual Renewal," select the POM Annual Renewal course, "enroll," and complete.

Please note - reviewing the Protection of Minors 101 course material will not update your original course completion date and cannot be used for Annual Renewal Compliance. Protection of Minors Renewal training will be launched annually on July 1st.

The training instructions above apply to all personnel seeking compliance. Select this link to find out more about student compliance requirements. Compliance for POM training applies across all University programs. Once complete, this portion of compliance is complete for student organization participation, student employment work with minors, academic interaction with minors, etc. Student compliance for the academic year is valid after July 1 annually. Incoming first year students who complete the Vector "Protecting Youth" module will be in compliance for POM training but if hired for employment, may be assigned the POM101 module in Oracle Learning Hub by their supervisor if working with youth.
