Deputy Title IX Coordinator Intensive

Deputy Title IX Coordinator Intensive

Legal Foundations, the Regulatory Landscape, and the Deputy's Lane

Serving as a Deputy Title IX Coordinator requires more than an understanding of federal regulations—it requires sound judgment, practical decision-making, and a clear understanding of your role within the institution's civil rights response process.

The Deputy Title IX Coordinator Intensive is a highly interactive, half-day training designed for new and experienced Deputy Title IX Coordinators, Civil Rights professionals, Student Affairs administrators, Human Resources professionals, and other campus leaders who support institutional compliance.

Participants will explore the legal foundations of Title IX and related civil rights laws while learning how to effectively receive reports, assess jurisdiction, implement supportive measures, maintain neutrality, coordinate institutional responses, and document actions in a manner that promotes consistency, fairness, and defensibility.

Throughout the course, participants will engage in practical discussions, realistic scenarios, and guided exercises that reinforce best practices and build confidence in responding to complex situations.
