Q: What is the difference between the old and new training?

A: For the new training, each user certificate will be updated every time their training is completed. The new training has been streamlined for brevity. No single sign-on will be required to register for the training. Scenarios and videos have been improved and updated.

Q: I got an email in the afternoon of May 6, 2025 with the subject of "Action Requested – SESIR.org Training Changes" - is that a legitimate email?

A: Yes - The Office of Safe Schools sent a notice to all SESIR.org registered users to announce changes to the training.

Q: Why am I receiving an unauthorized user error when I try to login?

A: SESIR.org is accessed through the school district single sign-on portal. Check with your school/district IT staff to ensure the email address being used for accessing SESIR.org is the same as the one being granted access to the SESIR tile in the portal.

Q: Once I access SESIR.org, where do I get my certificate?

A: Once you login to SESIR.org through the district single sign-on portal follow these steps:

1. Click on the Account link on the right side of the screen.

2. Click on the “Your Profile” option.

3. Click on Download certificate.

4. Certificates are JPG files not PDF.

Q: Why do I keep getting redirected to the login screen after I login?

A: Make sure pop-up blockers are turned off and that you are accessing SESIR.org through the district single sign-on portal.

Q: Why am I receiving an error message when I click the scenarios tab?

A: Old scenarios have been turned off to aid our transition of SESIR.org to a new platform. The new training scenarios are available at the link here SESIR Training beginning Monday, May 12th.

Q: Will my old certificate be valid once the new training is available? Is the state requiring periodic recertification for SESIR.org training for everyone?

A: Yes, your old certificate will be valid. There are no new requirements. If someone took the old SESIR.org training, they would not need to take the new training unless that person’s district requires periodic training. Rule 6A-1.0017(10) does not specify how often one must train. That is up for the districts to decide. Old certificates will simply no longer be available from the old SESIR.org training after June 30, 2025, so they must be downloaded by users as proof of previous training.

In order to log on to SESIR.org, select "Account" then use your District SSO (Single Sign-on) credentials.

Click on the "Account" option and sign-in with your District SSO credentials. Once signed in then you can click "Scenario" for the training scenarios that need to be completed.

All users should begin with the updated Introduction in order to learn the basic rules of SESIR reporting since there have been significant changes to reporting requirements in December 2022 and again in the Spring of 2023. Users who have completed the Introductions should continue by selecting the "Scenario" tab above. The Event and Discipline Report form is useful when determining how to code SESIR incidents. It includes links to definitions and other background information that will help the user gain a better understanding of reporting requirements.

To download your SESIR training certificate, log on to SESIR.org, select "Account" then "Your Profile" then "Download Certificate" - if there is no "Download Certificate" button on your profile page, you must complete the training to earn a certificate.

NOTE: The SESIR.org training is accessed via the Single Sign-On Portal. Please contact your District SSO office to ensure you have permission to access the SESIR training tile. If you need to access the training, visit the Single Sign-On Access page and find the SESIR tile.
