OHIO INSTITUTION OF HIGHER EDUCATION ANTI-HAZING REPORT

The National K-9 School for Dog Trainers has had no reports or violations of the institution’s anti-hazing policy in the five consecutive years prior to January 1, 2025.  As an institution holding a certificate of registration from the state board of career colleges and schools, the National K-9 School for Dog Trainers is required by Ohio Revised Code Section 3345.19 (anti-hazing policy) to post reported violations of the institution’s anti-hazing policy on its publicly accessible web site.

Ohio Senate Bill 126 also known as Collin’s Law was signed into law and took effect on October 7, 2021. Collin’s Law, Ohio’s Anti Hazing Act, enacts several changes intended to end hazing at higher education institutions in the state of Ohio. In addition to increasing criminal penalties for hazing, Collin’s Law also requires each higher education institution in the state of Ohio to post a report of all hazing violations on a publicly accessible website.
