This two-part set of 90-minute webinars will provide participants with a detailed look at the prescriptive requirements related to live hearings under the final Title IX regulations. They will
- examine key elements related to questioning by a party’s adviser, determining relevance, limitations on the use of statements not subject to cross-examination, and providing an adviser to conduct questioning at the hearing.
- dive deeply in the language of the preamble to provide insights about implementation of these core provisions.
- discuss effective practices that balance legal compliance with compassion and care, including how to promote and reinforce decorum, conduct a hearing remotely, and assist the parties – and the decision-makers – to prepare for the hearing.
- address the structure and format of the live hearing, including the choice of a hearing panel, external adjudicator, or internal administrator; the role of a hearing chair or coordinator; and the necessary procedural steps to ensure the decision-maker is free from bias and conflicts of interest.
- integrate a discussion of effective practices for the Title IX Coordinator, the decision-maker and the hearing chair/coordinator, including how to apply the standard of evidence to the information in order to reach a determination, evaluating credibility and sanctioning considerations.
