Consent.Ed

The Consent.Ed programme explores issues around sexual consent, providing an opportunity for us to discuss how we can look out for one another and create a positive, respectful consent culture, where everyone feels safe on campus.

Level 1 and Level 2 Consent.Ed is mandatory for all new students at LSE, across all levels of study.

Completion status will be monitored by our Consent.Ed Team, and you will be contacted directly if you do not complete your training.
