CUNY requires all new students, transfer students, club/organization officers, study abroad participants, student athletes, and residential life occupants to complete SPARC. Student athletes must complete SPARC annually to be eligible to play.
Failure to complete SPARC will result in a hold on your account, impacting your ability to register and maintain your classes and conduct college business until the course is completed.
The training is available in Brightspace to make it easier for students to access and maintain a record of their completion.
Once you log into BrightSpace, you will find your SPARC course under the "My Organization" section.
