ATIXA and NABITA Announce 2025 Joint In-Person Events

The Future of Title IX and Behavioral Intervention and Threat Assessment: Dismantling Silos, Enhancing Professional Development, and Elevating Student Support

KING OF PRUSSIA, Pa., Oct. 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The Association of Title IX Administrators (ATIXA) and the National Association for Behavioral Intervention and Threat Assessment (NABITA) are excited to announce in-person events throughout 2025. These membership associations will host winter and summer training and certification events at shared venues, culminating in their inaugural joint Annual Conference. These events offer higher education and K-12 practitioners' invaluable opportunities to train multidisciplinary teams.

ATIXA's and NABITA's Annual Conferences will introduce shared keynote addresses, roundtable discussions, and featured sessions on topics pertinent to both fields. Attendees can also look forward to a joint reception and expert-led Pre- and Post-Conference Certification Courses tailored to Title IX and behavioral intervention and threat assessment, optimizing networking and professional development opportunities.

"Cooperation and resource-sharing among teams are critical," said Saundra K. Schuster, M.S., J.D., Partner, TNG; President, ATIXA. "Bringing together interdepartmental teams can help reduce procedural redundancies and enhance everyone's efforts."

Makenzie Schiemann, M.S., Ph.D., Partner, TNG; President, NABITA, agreed. She added, "Title IX and behavioral intervention teams (BITs) share common audiences and require similarly engaged stakeholders. We are thrilled to provide opportunities for colleagues to train and travel together, fostering collaboration and reducing isolation."

Both associations offer intensive training and certification events to obtain or renew certifications in various relevant topics. Registering multiple participants results in substantial savings and streamlines the enrollment process.
