Title IX is a federal law that prohibits sex discrimination in the University’s programs and activities and applies in sexual misconduct cases that include sexual assault, sexual harassment, dating violence, domestic violence and stalking by anyone on University property. Topics such as sex discrimination, sexual harassment, dating and domestic violence, and stalking are covered in the course, along with details on specific UD policies and resources. New students and newly hired employees are required to take this training within 30 days.  Retraining for employees is required in the fall of every odd year to meet with state and federal guidelines.  Additionally, the Office of Equity & Inclusion offers training classes upon request and when important policy changes take effect.
