What is EverFi, and what is it providing Auburn via this partnership?
EverFi is a digital learning provider utilized by companies, organizations and educational institutions around the globe to manage their implementation of knowledge of critical topics in the classroom, in the office and the community to become empowering and inclusive entities that are welcoming to all.
Over 1,300 colleges and universities use EverFi to deliver global education to their campus, including UCLA, University of Mississippi, Penn State University, UAB, University of Florida, Texas A&M University, and University of Georgia.

Auburn first partnered with EverFi in 2014 to deliver campus-wide learning.
What are Auburn’s goals for implementing EverFi?
Auburn is seeking to create a campus environment where every member of our community can thrive. Our overall goals are:
- EverFi courses will highlight the role each person has in making Auburn University a more supportive and engaging place to learn, work, and live
- EverFi content will reinforce the university commitment to safety, wellbeing, and content shared at Camp War Eagle
- EverFi courses will be a catalyst for the discussion regarding healthy decisions on campus
- EverFi courses will assist the University community in identifying resources that provide a safer environment
Is my data private?
The EverFi interface is securely connected with AU Access, Auburn’s secure online portal. No data is being used for any other purpose than a safe and secure online course assignment.
Will my answers be private?
The EverFi courses will include surveys about your personal health behaviors to help personalize your experience and measure students’ attitudes and behaviors. All survey responses are confidential; Auburn University will only receive information about the student body as a whole and never your individual answers as a student.
Do I need to take this if I’ve already completed similar courses with another campus organization?
No, if you are a transfer student coming to Auburn from another institution you may be exempt from completing EVERFI here. Please contact everfi@auburn.edu to discuss.
Did the University create this module?
No. Auburn University has partnered with EverFi – a company that provides these courses and several others on our campus. This suite of online learning is currently being delivered at hundreds of campuses across the nation.
