Student Training. a. The Title IX Coordinator, after consulting with Safe Place, will ensure implementation of annual mandatory training as described herein in VII.b. - g. for all students with the exception of those defined in VII.h. below. b. The training whether in person and/or online will include, at a minimum, information about: i. the College’s revised sexual harassment/sexual violence policies and procedures; ii. the College’s prohibition against sexual harassment, sexual violence, and retaliation and how to recognize such forms of sex discrimination when it occurs; iii. how and to whom any incidents of sexual harassment, sexual violence, and retaliation should be reported; and iv. Title IX, the rights this law confers on students, the resources available to students who have experienced sexual harassment, sexual violence and retaliation, and the role and authority of OCR to enforce Title IX. c. These sessions should be interactive, presented in lay terms familiar to students, and illustrated with examples relevant to student life at the College, and should provide in-person opportunities throughout the academic year for students to engage in small group discussion about the information presented. The Title IX Coordinator shall obtain input from the Student Committee, outlined below, and Safe Place regarding the content and manner of delivering the training to maximize the training’s effectiveness for students. These sessions will emphasize: i. definitions or explanation of factors that may impact the ability to consent, including incapacitation; ii. the role of alcohol and other drug use in incidents of sexual harassment and sexual violence, including how such use may relate to consent and incapacitation; iii. clear examples of what types of actions may constitute sex discrimination in the College’s programs or activities, including but not limited to different types of sexual harassment and sexual violence; iv. the role of bystanders; d. An in-person session will be provided as part of the annual student orientation for new students (including visiting and international students). The College will require all new students who arrive after the in-person orientation has concluded to complete an online training and will provide information about in-person sessions being offered during the course of the school year. The College will develop a system to ensure that all students have participated in the mandatory training. e. For students with disabilities enrolled in the College’s Special Education (SPE) dual enrollment program, the College will modify the training as appropriate to meet the needs of those students as required by Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, and their implementing regulations. f. For students dually enrolled with their high school and the College, the College will modify the training as age appropriate to meet the needs of those students. g. For students enrolled as English as a Second Language (ESL) learners, the College will develop a process to identify the predominant languages spoken and provide appropriate translation of training materials and/or modify the training to provide equal access to content of the training to ESL students. h. For students enrolling solely to attend College trainings of two weeks or less or a contract education class through an employer, the College will develop a mechanism for delivering information upon enrollment about the College’s notice of nondiscrimination, prohibitions of sexual harassment, sexual violence, and retaliation, and the College’s grievance procedures, such as a disclosure statement for signature provided with enrollment materials or pre-enrollment online material.
