Total CME Credit Hours: 1 Category I (Formal)
Illinois law requires licensed professionals, including physicians licensed under the Medical Practice Act, to complete at least one hour of continuing education in sexual harassment prevention training each licensure period. The law intends to prevent hostile, intimidating, or offensive work environments by prohibiting sexual harassment among colleagues and staff. (This law refers to employment-related conduct, as distinct from a breach of sexual boundaries between clinician and patient, which is addressed in the Medical Practice Act and Rules.)
In this course, Austin Monroe, JD will cover the legal aspects and how a physician should best design appropriate sexual harassment prevention policies to protect themselves, their employees, and their practice. This course is your simple, effective, relevant, and legal method to meet the requirement AND protect your practice.
This course was originally presented by Austin Monroe, JD on August 18, 2021, and sponsored by NCMIC.
