Title IX Coordinator
Length of training was perfect. Lots of great “real” dialogue that a person can’t get elsewhere.
ICS speaks “K12 language” well. They make it easy to understand.
I feel comfortably cautious about the role after attending your training. Comfortable in that I have more information and understand my responsibilities better. Cautious in that I realize we are in the beginning stages of implementation and cannot be fully sure about how the law and regulation will be interpreted by OCR or in court cases. Thank you for your thoughtful presentation!
Thank you for working with us! Jennie Lucier and the entire team are excellent professionals. I was treated as a friend more than a client. I really appreciated this approach as this is such an overwhelming process for K12 administrators. I look forward to working with your team!
Overall, the training was very detailed and informative. I also enjoyed how personable all presenters were. Please extend my thanks to Betsy, Courtney, and Celeste!
Courtney and Betsy did an excellent job. Lots of information, but beneficial.
I think it was the perfect training. Recapped what needed to be said but not too much that it was redundant. The Hypos were the best. The discussion and collaboration that comes from those are very beneficial. Thanks ICS!
This was the perfect training. Thanks ICS!
Investigator Training
I really appreciate the checklists! I am hopeful we will be able to afford the templates because your style of organization is exceptional…
Thanks for a great training! This one was my second training. However, this was well thought out, it flowed well and was easy to follow. Thanks for all your hard work in putting this together for us. I really appreciate it.
Very thorough and well planned. I was not that excited about the training going into it, but your expertise and presentation made it much more engaging and kept my attention throughout.
There was a lot to digest regarding school’s responsibility for implementation. I feel more prepared than I did before the training!
These are difficult situations that need to be talked about and I believe the information was presented in a professional manner.
There was A LOT of information presented. Good information, easy to understand and yes I have more knowledge of the subject at hand but – there is so much more to know.
The mock investigations were very helpful. They helped build my confidence a bit as I made the choices and then heard the presenter’s feedback. Presenters were also outstanding in sharing information in an easy to understand way.
The training was very helpful from a standpoint of reminders, learning new things and the interaction the facilitator had with all. Being part of Title IX investigations can be stressful so it was great to be in a training with so many others and hearing their experiences. The environment (zoom) could have been difficult for a training like this, but Courtney did and excellent job of keeping all engaged, mixing humor and her own experiences in, which made for a very comfortable environment. I got a lot out of this training and will definitely take advantage of the webinars and future trainings.
I cannot possibly give enough praise to Courtney and Betsy for this training! On a human level, Courtney and Betsey were by far the most engaging, kind, and funny trainers I have ever taken a training with. They somehow managed to incorporate humor and compassion into their explanation of a 2000 page document. Their flexibility and willingness to answer questions during the sessions allowed for on-the-spot engagement and made asking questions about such a dense topic less overwhelming. Both Courtney and Betsy were comfortable with engagement at all levels and acknowledged when they did not know the answer rather than dancing around the issue. The training itself was incredibly easy to follow and the ongoing engagement, breakout sessions, and mock investigations made the two day session go by very quickly. Being able to incorporate newly acquired knowledge into practicing interview techniques made the absorption of knowledge seamless. The only thing I would liked to have seen done differently was the allowance of more time to read the parts we were assigned for the mock interviews and case studies only because I am a slow reader. This was by far the best training I have ever been to and I look forward to taking all future trainings with Betsy and Courtney!
Courtney and Betsy were excellent presenters, personable, full of knowledge, and went above and beyond to validate our concerns while preparing us to do this work. 10/10!
As a newly hired Title IX investigator, I thought the training was a great starting point. It was just enough information to get me started on conducting an interview, but not too much information that I felt overwhelmed. The best part for me was during the breakout sessions and mock interviews. Getting knowledge from those who have been in the field for years was invaluable. Good job with dividing the groups! I also felt that more time could have been given to the investigative techniques, but with the new regulations just coming out I understood. I am interested in the second part of the training as to gain more insight into report writing and credibility assessments.
I have spent many hours training this last year. I really appreciate your pace and that you take time for engagement. So often, training does not apply adult learning techniques but I feel like you did, successfully. Thanks
This training was great. I really enjoyed it and I feel prepared to investigate cases on my campus. I can tell that the ICS team spent a lot of time preparing for the training and it was well worth the investment.
Material was shared in a practical manner that clarified questions around the new regulations.

This training was incredibly helpful in understanding the role and expectations of the investigator in a Title IX case. I am definitely going to take advantage of the available webinars and upcoming podcast series. The training was also very interactive which really helped my learning.
Investigator Training Level 2
The team at ICS always provides top-notch training experiences. I have attended multiple trainings with Courtney and Betsy and each time they are professional, informative, and practical. Thanks for a great experience again!
Thank you for the wonderful job you did in training on the new regulations so quickly after they were released!

Decision-Maker
I felt much more comfortable after the presentation. I thought Courtney and Betsy demonstrated exceptional ability to explain and dissuade anxiety with the process. And I went back to view our draft District Policy and it made MUCH MORE SENSE! Thank you so much for the training.
I appreciate the presenters bringing in relevant examples into the training that we would all encounter.
This is a complex issue and I feel it was presented very well…Great Work!
Very well done. As a college professor, I admit that I am hypercritical of presenters and presentations. ICS was excellent!
Excellent, practical, training that I will recommend to others.
Advisor Training
The training I’ve taken with ICS has been amazing. There is a lot of material, and it’s all a bit overwhelming, but you made it feel a bit less so. You are so supportive and encouraging, and the information is presented clearly and organized well. Everything is very user-friendly, and the ladies at ICS were willing to answer our questions and adapted materials to the needs and requests of the participants. I’m sure I’ll be looking back at the PowerPoints and using the handouts a lot in the future.
Advisor Training Level 2
Thank you for the opportunity to provide feedback. The training was helpful to me as a newly-appointed Title IX advisor. The scenario/hypo and group discussion helped me apply the training and understand different areas of exploration for witnesses.
