Develop Institutional Protocols that Ensure Compliance & Avoid Legal Liability
Institutions face significant challenges in complying with mandatory reporting requirement laws for youth and minors. Lack of standardized training, inconsistent understanding of reporting obligations, fear of legal or professional repercussions and unclear institutional protocols all add to the confusion and potential non-compliance.
Join our expert presenters on Thursday, April 3, 2025, as they guide you through case-studies to simulate real-life reporting scenarios; offer you a comprehensive understanding of mandatory reporting, and the steps needed to develop effective campus-wide training programs. They will share practical advice for developing reporting processes and institutional protocols to keep your institution compliant and your young visitors safe.
You will gain mandated reporting acumen, and the necessary confidence needed to meet your moral and legal responsibility to minors who interact with your campus community.
