At Bond, we believe one of our most valuable services is helping clients avoid problems before they occur. To that end, we conduct issue-specific trainings for a wide cross section of university stakeholders, including presidential and senior leadership teams, academic leadership, compliance officers, student conduct administrators, disability accommodations providers, religious life administrators, human resources personnel, athletics staff and faculty. Each training is tailored to the issue at hand, the university personnel and procedures involved, and the specific culture and expectations of the institution. We conduct small and large group training in a variety of formats, as desired by the client, including in-person, remote and hybrid. Our attorneys not only write and conduct these trainings, but we often help clients comply with agency training tracking requirements and design post-training monitoring to help address systemic issues.
Our attorneys’ training skills are informed by their experience before national and statewide audiences. Our attorneys have presented on issues affecting institutions at NACUA, CICU, the National Association of Attorneys General, the U.S. Navy and the New York City Bar Association, among other organizations. Bond attorneys are frequent presenters at meetings of the New York NACUA Affinity Group, which is led and co-hosted by a Bond attorney who ensures the programming includes timely resources for the New York higher education community.
