The Consent Academy offers an extensive library of consent-oriented classes.
Most courses are designed to be 2 hours, but can be adjusted to fit your needs.
We're always creating more classes. If you don't see what you're looking for exactly, we create custom workshops as well.
Workshop Categories
Topics can be taught individually or combined in a series.
Consent Basics
We all need to be able to talk about consent and how to build consent culture. Most of us have learned that 'no means no' and 'yes means yes', but consent goes way beyond that. Join us for an introduction to consent theory, so you can start to practice consent more in your daily life. Sessions include time for your consent questions, whether they're about a first hug, a new relationship or job, or sex.

Consent Beyond the Basics
When you move beyond "no means no" and "yes means yes", consent can get quite complicated. We're here to help you sort through the complexities.

Relationship Skills
Relationship skills (also known as interpersonal skills) help us communicate and connect with other people. While they're something we practice all the time, we often have gaps in our learning around healthy ways to do it. We're here to help with in-depth workshops on specific skills.

Consent and Sex
Consent isn't always about sex, but sometimes it is. We believe consent is an essential part of any sexual act, yet it's rarely something people have been taught about in detail. We want to change that. Our sex educators have created courses to help you navigate consent and sex in a way that is safer, more connective, and satisfying to everyone involved.

Consent Intensives
There are some topics you can break up into smaller courses and talk about in a couple of hours, and there are some that require more time to go deep and build a strong foundation. Many of these intensives are skills-based and provide ample time to practice and get individual feedback.

Consent and Leadership
Consent and Leadership is a unique opportunity for leaders to deepen their understanding of consent, power, trauma, and accountability. Each workshop explores the knowledge, skills, and practices anyone who finds themselves in a position of influence or authority needs in order to foster a consensual space.

Consent Advocate Training
Consent advocates help create more consensual spaces by educating and supporting people when
consent incidents occur. It's rarely an easy role, but our courses can start to prepare you for this necessary work.

Consent and Social Justice
Consent is based on autonomy, the inherent right to decide what happens to your own body, mind, and spirit. While autonomy is a right we all have, our agency (access to personal power) can be reduced by a variety of factors. Social justice is the process of creating a society in which autonomy is respected and agency is fairly distributed. To support the creation of a more socially just world, we've put together courses to explore the way consent interacts with various issues of oppression.

Consent and Youth
It's never too early to start consent education and to start modeling consent practices. We have courses that help you understand the nuances of consent at all different developmental stages.

Consent and Gaming
Whether it's a tabletop role playing game, computer game, or board game, consent is always at play. The more complex the game or interaction, the more consent is needed so everyone can have fun. Our gamers have put together a set of courses designed to explore consent so you can take your play to a new level.

Consent in the Workplace
What might it look like to foster consent culture at work? Consent in the workplace often starts as a way to avoid sexual and personal harassment issues, but it can actually improve satisfaction and employee retention. Our courses can help you make your workplace more of a consensual place to be.

Teaching Consent
Teaching consent is incredibly important and rewarding, but where do you start? Our educators have years of experience teaching this complex topic and can help you incorporate it as part of your work.
