Title IX and VAWA Training: Building Safer Campuses --> Overview of Title IX and VAWA
Post what you've learned about this topic and how you intend to apply it. Feel free to post questions and comments too.
From this module, I learned that Title IX and VAWA are not just compliance requirements, but essential frameworks for creating safe, equitable, and supportive learning and working environments. I gained a clearer understanding of my role and responsibility as a postsecondary professional in recognizing concerning behaviors, responding appropriately to disclosures, and knowing when and how to report concerns.
I intend to apply this knowledge by remaining attentive to student and employee interactions, maintaining professional boundaries, and responding in a supportive, trauma-informed manner if concerns arise. I will also ensure I follow institutional policies and reporting procedures accurately and promptly. By doing so, I can help contribute to a campus culture that prioritizes safety, respect, and accountability for all members of the institution.
Title 9, VAWA and the clery act work in congruence to protect students on campus.
I have learned a lot about Title IX and VAWA from this. It is important for the safety of students and employees.
Understanding VAWA and Cleary Act are important in keeping campus safe. Good to know about the role of Title IV coordinator.
Title IX is extremely important and beneficial information to know!
I have learned that Title IV and VAWA policies teaches you how campus safety requirements are necessary in postsecondary education. You learn how schools manage, report, and communicate financial aid processes, and how to prevent and respond to sexual misconduct, maintain compliant policies, and meet federal reporting standards like Clery. Overall, it builds a solid understanding of how to keep an institution aligned with federal funding and campus safety obligations.
I have done this training before, and I still learned something new. Title IX and VAWA are there for everybody.
Learning about Title IX and VAWA really highlighted how important it is to create a safe and supportive environment for everyone on campus. Beyond just meeting legal requirements, it’s about understanding how policies and reporting processes help protect students and employees from discrimination and violence. I plan to apply this by recognizing signs of potential issues early, supporting those affected, and making sure proper reporting channels are followed.
Any citizen in the US shall, on the basis of sex, be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance.
I learned what Title IX and VAWA entails and why is so important for all federally funded schools to have a Title IX coordinator. As a IX coordinator they will be able to focus on creating action plans to be able to prevent any sort of harassment, and would be also able to take all the necessary steps to help the victims when the situations do arise.
Learned that this protects students and Staff from all discrimination, harassment, and very valuable Asset
As a Responsible Employee, it is my duty to foster a safe and equitable campus for all students.
while training is required by law, it is vital that knowing all this is important and beneficial
I have learned the duties of school employees as "responsible employees" or "mandatory reporters." Also, how to support students or colleagues who disclose an incident. Each academic institution must have a Title IX Coordinator who monitors and coordinates the institution's overall compliance with Title IX regulations and state laws.
Through the Title IX and WAVA training, I gained valuable insight into the rights, responsibilities, and protections surrounding gender equity, sexual harassment, and violence prevention, particularly within educational and institutional contexts. This understanding helps us identify inappropriate behavior, stand up for ourselves and others, and promote a safer, more respectful community. We can put this knowledge into action by staying informed about our rights, spotting warning signs, using available resources, supporting those affected, practicing consent and respect, and following appropriate procedures based on our roles within the institution.

Throughout the Title IX and WAVA training, I have learned a lot about rights, responsibilities, and protections related to gender equity, sexual harassment, and violence prevention, especially in educational and institutional settings. Understanding these laws empowers us to recognize violations, advocate for ourself or others, and contribute to a safer, more respectful environment. We can apply this knowledge by knowing our rights, recognizing red flags, utilizing available resources, supporting others, practicing consent and respect and getting involved following protocols based on our roles in the institution.
it was nice to freshen up on this i learned alot about Title IX
It was a great refresher on Title IX and VAWA. It was a reminder that we need to ensure that all new team members and students receive both initial and ongoing training to insure we keep a safe campus environment.
