USG Board of RegentsEvery year, Georgia Tech requires faculty, staff, and student employees to complete the Integrity and Compliance Campaign, an online training program. The campaign is designed to educate the Institute community about ethical decision-making as well as policies regarding conflicts of interest, cybersecurity, and more.
The training usually takes place during March and April, but this year the Institute is moving the 2020 Integrity and Compliance Campaign to November so it can coincide with annual Ethics Awareness Week programming.

Oliver-Staley adds that exercising sound ethical judgment, acting with civility in the workplace, and taking individual responsibility for Georgia Tech’s policies and legal obligations are vital to the long-term success of the Institute as well as individual employees.
