Discussion List for campus-based and allied personnel working to end gender-based violence on campus.

["Ingarfield, Lisa" <>]

Dear colleagues,

 

We are in the process of reviewing Title IX requirements and ensuring that our 3 institution consortium is in compliance. Specifically, one of the questions that came up (beyond the Title IX officer knowing that they are indeed the Title IX officer, and their existence being advertised along with the process of filing a complaint) was the training requirements for those officers. Someone can of course be named the officer but if they know nothing of Title IX processes and requirements, then what? What is the standard or obligation on the part of the institution to make sure the officer is “fully trained” and what does “fully trained” even mean? Are there multiple standards or one guiding standard for this? Should they know the very basics only or are they required to understand it comprehensively. Any information you can send about legal/OCR/best practice requirements and what your institution does or provides for training would be extremely helpful.

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Lisa Ingarfield
