CHICAGO (AP) -- Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan and the state Board of Education have started a training program to show teachers how to keep children safe online.

The program will start with an online session for more than 365 teachers introducing them to the program.

The program's sessions will focus on areas such as cyber bullying and sexting.

Material will be broken up by grade levels for teachers working with kids of different ages.

The material can be accessed on the attorney general's website.
