Trainings

Workshops and Trainings

Title IX and the Office of Prevention and Advocacy collaborate annually to offer in-person training for student groups, departments, committees and employees denoted as "mandatory reporters."  Examples of our programs include:

  • 1.0 Navigating Campus Sexual Violence: Title IX and Prevention Work
    • This introductory workshop explores the impacts of campus sexual violence, trauma-informed care, where to report, and the importance of prevention work. Through this workshop, participants will gain knowledge and introspection on subjects such as power and control, the Title IX process, the socio-ecological model of prevention, and the application of trauma-informed care in their work.
  • 2.0 Putting It Into Practice (skill-based training workshop)
    • This workshop will dive deeply into how to effectively address difficult conversations through practical application, trauma-informed care, and role-play. This workshop is interactive and involves practicing how we listen to and respond to challenging situations and ultimately where to refer. Completion of 1.0 is not required prior to attending this workshop.
  • The Highlander Playbook: Healthy Relationships and Bystander Intervention
    • Interactive workshop presented to all new students during NSO 2.0 that discusses consent and boundaries, healthy relationships and bystander intervention. 
  • Bystander Intervention: Highlanders Speak Out
    • ​This workshop is presented to students to educate them on recognizing problematic situations and equipping them with the skills to be an active bystander.

Required Campuswide Training 

All new students and employees are required to complete online training provided by Vector Solutions addressing topics including sexual harassment, Title IX, consent, bystander intervention and other related topics upon their entry to NJIT.  Students who fail to complete their required training will have a hold placed on their student account, preventing them from registering for the upcoming semester.
