ABOUT T9 MASTERED

Title IX investigations are unique; there is nothing in law enforcement or civil litigation quite like them. They combine aspects of civil and criminal investigation with campus-based policies and procedures, while utilizing insights from psychology about trauma and stress. Investigators working on these hybrid cases need a specialized training that incorporates all of these perspectives.

The T9 Mastered℠ TitleIX training program is the comprehensive guide to conducting Title IX investigations. Our trainers provide practical and detailed instruction on how to thoroughly investigate Title IX claims so that decision makers can implement effective resolutions and remedies. How do we do that? We combine our knowledge of the relevant laws and regulations with decades of actual investigation experience to provide a step-by-step approach to tackling Title IX claims.
