Introduction to Clery Act Training
This course teaches participants how to compassionately receive disclosures of Clery Act crimes, document and report them properly, and anonymize them if necessary.
Who was Jeanne Clery?
In 1986, 19-year-old Lehigh University student Jeanne Clery was brutally sexually assaulted and murdered in her dorm room. Her parents, Connie and Howard Clery, later found out that the university had been experiencing high crime rates, but had not been letting the campus community know. With the aim of preventing similar tragedies in the future, they advocated for legislation that would require colleges and universities to let their communities know about the crimes happening on and near their campuses. The result of their work is the topic of this course: the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act, commonly known as the Clery Act.
The Clery Act requires colleges to disclose crime statistics, issue timely warnings, and enhance campus safety. By the end of this training, participants will be able to:
Identify the key provisions and requirements of the Clery Act that pertain to Campus Security Authorities.
Recognize real-life scenarios that require reporting under the Clery Act.
Execute the reporting obligations of Campus Security Authorities and receive disclosures with compassion.
