SC 101: Pathways to Resolution

Recommended for: Conduct practitioners at any level seeking more ideas and development around alternate resolution (sanction) outcomes.

This module focuses on the effective use and development of multiple pathways for resolving matters within student conduct processes. As the field of student conduct has evolved over time, so have the tools used by administrators to resolve cases through different formats. From informal measures to a formal hearing, restorative practices, and proactive efforts to establish environments where students can thrive, there are a myriad of ways student conduct professionals can address concerning behaviors and alleged violations of policy. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of the differences between various resolution options; develop skills to determine when each option is appropriate; and determine how to effectively facilitate those pathways.
