Audio Online Seminar • Thursday, February 25, 2010 • 12:00 - 1:30 PM CST • $274
It’s the sort of thing that keeps college administrators up at night …
Schools are being sued left and right for rights violations–by students and employees alike. The list of rights is long, the details are complex (and often arcane), and schools very often come out on the losing end of litigation. Even if they prevail, it’s usually at great expense.
So … what to do? How can you help ensure your institution is respecting and protecting individual rights? How can you feel comfortable you’re doing all you can to prevent errors and oversights at every level, in every department?
Rights audits should be a fundamental part of your strategy. They can be implemented quickly and with relative ease, and they can be very, very effective. You can learn more about them in this new online seminar coming February 25.
Conducting Rights & Compliance Audits: Implementing Results will be led by Brett Sokolow, J. D., and W. Scott Lewis, J. D., partners in the National Center for Higher Education Risk Management. Consultants to more than 1,400 colleges and universities, with decades of experience in higher-ed law, they’ll review models for conducting both rights and compliance audits.
First, you’ll learn how to audit institutional policy in areas including:
• The right to a fair hearing
• The right to free speech
• The right to peaceful assembly
• The right to access education records
• The right to notice of policies
• Rights assured by Title IX
• Rights assured by the Clery Act
• Rights assured by ADA and Section 504 of the Rehab Act
• Rights assured by state laws
• Rights under FOIA, FCRA and FERPA
• And more.
Listen to a preview
Next, you’ll see how to audit for compliance, to determine whether your policies are being properly implemented, at every level–individual, departmental and institutional.
Questions encouraged during this interactive seminar …
The seminar is live and interactive, and you’re encouraged to submit questions to the presenters for discussion during a dedicated Q&A session. It’s a valuable opportunity to fine-tune your understanding of some highly nuanced subject matter, and get help for the unique challenges you face on your campus.
High value, low cost …
Magna Online Seminars are truly affordable investments in professional education. The fee for this seminar is a modest $274; you’d pay far more for an offsite event or an onsite consultation. Better still, the fee applies per site, not per person. You can invite colleagues from across your campus to attend, at no additional cost. Sign on from a lecture hall, conference room or auditorium … you’ll still pay just $274. (Looking for additional savings? Register for all three parts of our Preventive Law series and get even more bang for your buck. You’ll find details here.)
Who should attend: |
Second in a series! Our three-part series, Preventive Law in Higher Education, also includes seminars on campus-wide preventive law best practices and the special needs of student affairs departments. Sign up for all three for one remarkably low price! Details here. |
Don’t lose sleep wondering if your rights policies are up to snuff … or whether they’re being followed. Learn how audits can help you rest easier … register for this valuable presentation today.
