EXCPE 1522 - Trauma-Informed Administrative Investigations
6 units
This course is for internal or external investigators of sexual and gender-based violence complaints in the Alberta post-secondary sector, including both student conduct and workplace investigations. It is grounded in the Alberta regulatory and legal context, and informed by evidence-based best and promising practices, particularly as outlined in the national Courage to Act program. It does not purport to train investigators, but aims to assist with re-framing their investigations to infuse a trauma-informed approach, ensure procedural fairness and, as a result, reduce harm to all involved. In addition, the principles in this training are applicable to any allegation of interpersonal harm and need not be limited to sexual and gender-based violence.
