TITLE IX TRAINING

In addition to the dozens of trainings he has administered himself over the years as a university Title IX Coordinator and Civil Rights Officer, Ryan Thompson has spent hundreds of hours undergoing training from a variety of professional organizations and institutions, including law enforcement, law firms, the U.S. Department of Education, the U.S. Office for Civil Rights, United Educators (UE) Insurance, the Clery Center, the State University of New York Student Conduct Institute (SUNY SCI), and the Association of Title IX Administrators (ATIXA).

For Title IX training services offered by THOMPSON ESQUIRE PLLC, go to the Services page.

The 2020 Title IX Regulations 34 CFR §106.45(b)(10) “requires recipients to publish materials used for training Title IX Coordinators, investigators, decision-makers, and persons who facilitate informal resolutions on the recipient’s website or make these materials available upon request for inspection by members of the public.”

This mandate also applies to recipient institutions that hire external investigators, decision-makers or other personnel. As such, Ryan Thompson’s training credentials, along with links to available training materials, are published below.
