Virtual Training
Final Title IX Rule – Implications for Institutions and School Districts
Course Description:
This virtual training will outline the requirements of the new final rule on sexual harassment and assault under Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972. This new rule will require, at institutions of higher education, courtroom-like adjudicatory hearings where designated representatives for both parties would be able to call and cross-examine witnesses. These hearings would be optional for K-12 schools. Additionally, the new rule changes the standard of what constitutes sexual harassment and requires recipients of federal funds to train personnel to evaluate evidence, implement the “rape shield” law, and make decisions on one of two standards of evidence. Implications for educational entities, pushback, and major requirements to be implemented before the coming school year will all be covered.
