SafeZone Training

SafeZone Training is organized by the BMCC SafeZone Committee. The training dives into how to become better allies and create a safe and inclusive space for the Queer Community at BMCC and beyond. The training explores LGBTQIA+ identities, gender, sexuality, expression, and intersectionality, while also examining prejudice, societal expectations, and privilege. The training is open to all  BMCC students, faculty and staff.

All participants who complete the 2.5 hours training will be SafeZone certified for 2 years (from the semester of their training date) and will get a SafeZone email signature logo to verify they are SafeZone Trained.

Students who complete the training will have the training noted on their Co-Curricular Transcript (CCT) .
