After a flurry of challenges to the new 2024 Title IX Rules, a district court in Kentucky recently vacated the 2024 Rules nationwide. This means the 2020 Title IX Rules are back in effect across the country. The new administration is unlikely to appeal the decision, so schools will be implementing the 2020 Rules going forward.

Whether your Title IX team switched to the 2024 Rules and needs a 2020 refresher or you have new team members just getting up to speed, renewed training is essential to successful implementation.

Thompson & Horton is offering both comprehensive basic training for the whole Title IX team and more in-depth role-specific training options to meet your needs.
