Champlain College offers educational programming to students, staff, and faculty to better familiarize our campus community with Title IX, our sexual misconduct policies and procedures, resources, and bystander intervention.
Champlain College strives for every community member to have the knowledge, skills, and awareness they need to intervene when anyone is observed being harassed or endangered by sexual violence. Champlain partners with Get Inclusive to provide students and employees with this training through a dedicated online learning platform including prevention and compliance training tools built specifically for higher education.
Each year, all new College employees and incoming students are required to complete this bystander intervention training.
Everyone with a Champlain email address will be able to engage with this resource. Upon completion of the training, students and employees will have a better understanding of sexual misconduct and the resources and processes on campus. Our community will also develop a shared language around terms related to various types of sexual harassment.
We provide expansive sexual violence and bystander education for new students as part of the transition to college. New students engage with three education-based resources prior to the start of classes: the online Community and Culture program ‘Sexual Assault Prevention,’ the interactive Zero Shades of Grey orientation session, and a presentation from the Title IX Office.
Student leaders including Orientation Leaders, Resident Advisors, and the Student Government Association Cabinet are required to attend training sessions as well.
The Women’s & Gender Center (WGC) hosts several events throughout the year based on its three themes: empowerment & leadership development, gender identity & sexual orientation, and sexual violence awareness & prevention.
The WGC works in conjunction with campus partners to educate the community about bystander intervention, prevention of sexual violence, and resources for survivors. Previous programs include Sexual Violence Awareness Month programming, How to Help a Friend (who has experienced sexual violence), and Shedding Light on Sexual Violence.
See Upcoming EventsThe College hosts an annual Sexual Health and Wellbeing Fair during the fall semester, where students can learn about sexual health resources on campus and in the Burlington area, learn about safety and empowerment, and meet representatives from the Title IX Office.
