Title IX: Law and Compliance

Title IX of the Educational Amendments of 1972, was the first comprehensive federal law to prohibit sex discrimination against students and employees of educational institutions.  Title IX benefits both males and females, and is at the heart of efforts to create gender equitable schools.

The law requires educational institutions to maintain policies, practices and programs that do not discriminate against anyone based on sex; fair and equitable treatment is expected in all areas of recruitment, admissions, educational programs and activities, course offerings and access, counseling, financial aid, employment assistance, scholarships, sexual harassment, and athletics.

This 60-minute training program is designed to provide participants an opportunity to become familiar with Penn’s policies and practices on Title IX.
