Alternative or Informal Resolutions

Facilitating the Alternative or Informal Resolution Process

The Alternative Resolution Training covers the requirements under the May 2020 Title IX Regulations for informal resolution, and includes strategies that can be used in other conduct and resolution processes.

Our practitioners will introduce alternative resolutions and other dispute resolution options, and will facilitate discussions on impartiality, avoiding bias, identifying conflicts of interest, and community engagement. Participants will gain insight into how to conduct different processes within the scope of Title IX and beyond, including implementation, process development, and documentation.
