Implicit Bias Workshop

Implicit Bias Workshop

NJSIAA posted this memo on ZebraWeb.

 

As a reminder, this workshop is required! No official will be eligible for any assignments at any level (regular season or tournament contests) without participating in the workshop.  Similar workshops, like the NFHS course, will not be accepted.  This is a one-time-only requirement - it will not be a seasonal or annual requirement.

If you took the workshop last year, you do not need to take it again. You can check your ZebraWeb eligibility page to view if you are green for the Implicit Bias workshop requirement. If so, you do not need to take this workshop again.
