Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 ( 20 U.S.C. 1681 et seq. ) is amended— by repealing section 906; by redesignating section 905 ( 20 U.S.C. 1685 ) as section 906; and by inserting after section 904 the following: Each covered school system shall ensure that each title IX coordinator, and that each employee who works with athletics or teaches physical education or health, for the school system receives, at least once per year, training on the rights under this title of students at elementary schools or secondary schools, and procedures for submitting complaints of violations of this title to the Office for Civil Rights of the Department of Education.
Each covered school system shall ensure that— a title IX coordinator for the system provides training to athletes at elementary schools or secondary schools in the system on the rights of the athletes under this title, and procedures for submitting complaints of violations of this title to the Office for Civil Rights of the Department of Education; and each such athlete receives that training at least once per year. In this paragraph, the terms elementary school and secondary school have the meanings given the terms in section 8101 of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 ( 20 U.S.C. 7801 ).
Each covered institution of higher education shall ensure that each employee of the athletic department of the institution receives, at least once per year, training on the rights under this title of students at covered institutions of higher education, and procedures for submitting complaints of violations of this title to the Office for Civil Rights of the Department of Education. Each covered institution of higher education shall ensure that— an expert in matters relating to this title, who is not an employee of the institution’s athletic department, provides training to athletes at the institution on the rights of the athletes under this title, and procedures for submitting complaints of violations of this title to the Office for Civil Rights of the Department of Education; and each such athlete receives that training at least once per year.
The Secretary of Education shall establish and maintain a database of title IX coordinators, which shall be separate from the civil rights coordinators data maintained by the Office for Civil Rights of the Department of Education. The database shall include, at a minimum, the name, phone number, and email address for each title IX coordinator. The Secretary shall make the information in the database available to the public with, and by the same means as, reports made available under section 485(g)(4)(B) of the Higher Education Act of 1965 ( 20 U.S.C. 1092(g)(4)(B) ). .
