As part of your induction program, we are asking you to complete the Active Bystander Programme.

The Active Bystander Programme is a core element of UCL and Students’ Union UCL’s induction that aims to empower students to recognise and challenge unacceptable behaviours on campus and beyond. Over the last eight years, more than 35,000 students have taken part in the program, helping develop a vibrant and inclusive community for students and staff at »Ê¼Ò»ªÈË. 

 The program is made up of two parts:

 Part 1: An online training module

This module will teach you what constitutes unacceptable behaviours such as bullying, harassment and sexual misconduct and how you can intervene if you spot any of these behaviors and introduce you to support services available at »Ê¼Ò»ªÈË and externally.

This training is accessible via the  website by clicking ‘’ and should be completed before attending a live workshop.

 Part 2: A live 75-minute workshop organised.  

The workshop will explore the topics covered in the online module in greater depth.

In groups, you will discuss scenarios, safe methods of intervention, and how you can report and best challenge unacceptable behaviour.

The live in-person workshops will take place during the following dates and times:

Monday 7 October 2024 2:00±è³¾â€“3:30±è³¾

If you are unable to attend the live sessions we have booked, there will be general admissions workshops running in the second half of Term 1. You can sign-up for a  to be notified once bookings for these sessions open.

We believe that the Active Bystander Programme helps create a safe and welcoming environment at »Ê¼Ò»ªÈË. That’s why it’s extremely important that all students attend the training. 

Please get in touch with activebystander@ucl.ac.uk if you have any questions about the training. 

Students must complete an online induction with a quiz via SISO before being able to access the Workshop or Make Space.

This induction is available in a written format and video format and should take no more than 10 minutes to complete.
