implicit bias

October/November 2024 Officials Implicit Bias Workshops

In September 2019, NJSIAA entered into a Memorandum of Agreement with the NJ Office of the Attorney General – Division of Civil Rights.  This Memorandum required NJSIAA to provide implicit bias training to all registered NJSIAA officials.

To accomplish this requirement, NJSIAA will be hosting a series of workshops on implicit bias during the 2024-2025 school year.  The workshops will be virtual and will be hosted on the Zoom platform. They should last approximately one hour.

This is a one-time-only requirement - it will not be a seasonal or annual requirement.  If you have already completed this workshop, you do not need to take it again.

This workshop is required! No official will be eligible for any assignments at any level (regular season or tournament contests) without participating in the workshop.  Similar workshops, like the NFHS course, will not be accepted.  

Thank you in advance for your participation and cooperation.

Below you will find the schedule for upcoming workshops. Pre-registration is required. Each registration link is unique to the specific date and time. Each session will be limited to 100 participants.  Only register for one session.

Thank you in advance for your participation and cooperation.
