Universities across the country are adapting to increasing issues when it comes to case management needs. From Title IX, Student/Employee Conduct, 504, Academic Integrity, to Behavioral Intervention and more, higher education is under increasing pressure to enhance investigation and case management processes. Many higher ed institutions are leveraging Federal Grant Programs for School Safety to implement Guardian Case Management Software.

Guardian can be used by all departments within a school district, with common use cases being Title IX, Student Conduct, HR, Behavioral Intervention, Threat Alerts, and more.
