Each year, students, faculty, staff , athletes and administrators are required by the Department of Education to take Title IX training. Students and staff at CSUN share whether the training is eff ective in keeping the campus safe. Title IX is a civil rights law defending people in the U.S. from being discriminated against, denied and excluded based on their sex from participating and benefi ting in educational or program activities that receive federal fi nancial assistance.

According to the CSUN website, CSU Executive Order 1095 requires students to take the training, and it is administered once per academic school year.

Although the training format is online, there are people on campus who feel there should be diff erent formats off ered when it comes to this important topic. Barret Morris, director of equity and Title IX Coordinator at CSUN, said there are two formats of training off ered at CSUN, which are in-person and online. However, he believes that in-person training is more eff ective.

“We know historically that in-person training is better than online training, but the California law mandates us to have training,” Morris said. Since CSUN has a large student population, Morris feels it’s vital to have an online mechanism for students to be aware of the subject.

Sapandeep Chadda, supervisor of the College of Humanities Student Resource Center/EOP, believes the online training isn’t eff ective, but the topic itself is important to be taught, especially when it comes to a college setting. She also points out that it needs to be more hands-on.

“I think the most practical way to do a training is to put people in those scenarios,” Chadda said.

CSUN student Karina Gutierrez also believes there should be changes to the training for students to be engaged. Campus events and hands-on training are some alternative ways she believes the training can be off ered to the students. “ ey can do something on campus to make it more engaging than online. Probably have a day specifi cally for sexual assault,” she said.

If students still have a hold on their account, they are able to access the online training by logging into their CSUN portal. Beneath the home tab, the My Checklist box will appear and will show whether the student has a hold and needs to complete the training online.
