Title IX Compliance v
Spry: Helping Athletic Departments Hit the Easy Button on Title IX/Sexual Misconduct Compliance

Title IX of the Education Amendment of 1972 (more commonly known as Title IX) is a Federal statute that prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex (including sexual identity, orientation, and expression) in educational settings. Spry is prepared to be your partner in educating student-athletes about the intricacies of Title IX, you can find our Title IX handbook here.

In 2017, the NCAA implemented a Campus Sexual Violence policy for all member institutions.  The current NCAA policy requires that athletic department educate all student-athletes, coaches and staff on sexual violence prevention. 

At Spry, we’ve provided a turn key solution to help Athletic Departments meet the requirements issued by the NCAA through our Sexual Violence Prevention training modules. We’ve designed two courses: one geared towards student-athletes and the other tailored for coaches and staff.   

Not only has Spry spared institutions the hassle of creating a training curriculum, but since the modules live within Spry’s platform, it can easily be assigned to student-athletes to complete individually at their own pace, or as a team. No longer are schools obligated to corral their entire teams into assembly rooms for training.  Nor will understaffed Title IX offices have to conduct dozens of meetings throughout the year. 

Spry’s Title IX curriculum 

  • Created by an experienced Title IX coordinator 
  • Contains modules for student-athletes, coaches, and administrators
  • Aligned with NCAA and Department of Education guidelines.
  • Includes a Transfer Tracer Template that will equip your institution with the tools to perform diligence on any incoming transfer student.

This course is yet another way Spry can partner with your athletic department to relieve the administrative burden many departments face.
