Training Materials for Title IX Personnel
Title IX requires that all individuals involved in the grievance process, including, but not necessarily limited to, the Title IX Coordinator and Deputy Title IX Coordinators, investigators, decision makers, and any person who facilitates an informal resolution process, receive training on the following areas:
- The definition of sexual harassment;
- The scope of the education program or activity;
- How to conduct an investigation and grievance process, including hearings, appeals, and informal resolution processes; and
- How to serve impartially, including by avoiding prejudgment of the facts at issue, conflicts of interest, and bias.
Decision-makers must also receive training on the following areas:
- Any technology to be used at a hearing;
- Issues of relevance for questions and evidence, including when questions about the complainant's sexual predisposition or prior sexual behavior are not relevant;
Investigators must also be trained on issues of relevance to create an investigative report that fairly summaries relevant evidence.
Advisors assigned by the University will receive training regarding their role in the process. Advisors are not expected or required to have any specific level of training or experience.
Title IX also requires that UND post its training materials on its website. Below are the materials used to train the Title IX Coordinator, Deputy Title IX Coordinators, investigators, and those involved in the informal resolution process since May 2020. This list will be updated periodically, as appropriate.
