Mandatory Reporters
When the College receives actual knowledge of allegations of sexual harassment/discrimination, NPC must institute corrective measures, which can include initiating an investigation and offering supporting measures. Actual knowledge means that an NPC employee has received notice of sexual harassment/discrimination or notice of allegations of sexual harassment/discrimination. All NPC employees must report any allegation to the Title IX Coordinator.
NPC has designated a Title IX Coordinator who can be reached by using the information listed in the box to the right. Notice of sexual harassment/discrimination or allegations of sexual harassment/discrimination to the Title IX Coordinator conveys actual knowledge to the institution.
Mandatory Reporters
All NPC employees have been designated as Mandatory Reporters including full-time and part-time (temporary, adjuncts, student) employees. Mandatory reporters are expected to report actual or suspected sexual harassment/discrimination to the Title IX Coordinator within twenty-four (24) hours and/or police, if desired by the Complainant. The Title IX Coordinator will take action on the report.
Mandatory Reporters shall report when they:
- witnesses sexual harassment;
- hears about sexual harassment or sexual harassment allegations from a complainant (i.e., a person alleged to be the victim) or a third party (e.g., the complainant’s parent, friend, or peer);
- receives a written or verbal complaint about sexual harassment or sexual harassment allegations;
- or by any other means.
Mandatory Reporter under this procedure does not diminish or affect the requirement under Arizona state law requiring the report of child abuse, elder abuse, and/or abuse of individuals with disabilities to appropriate officials.
