The Department of Education, on June 23, 2022, published its third significant revision to Title IX Regulations since 2014. In this version, the Department of Education reinstated some of the regulatory requirements included in the 2014 Regulations that were eliminated by the Department of Education during the Trump Administration. To be sure, these Regulatory requirements will result in all schools receiving federal funding to review and update their existing Title IX policies. What follows, therefore, are some of the highlights of the newest form of Title IX Regulations.
What you will learn:
• The new definition for sexual harassment.
• How the new Regulations provide protections for LQBTQ students under Title IX.
• How the new Regulations provide for expanded staff Title IX training.
• How the new Title IX Regulations provide expanded protections from retaliation.
