Spring 2023 OIED Workshops_FINAL.jpg

The Office of Institutional Equity and Diversity (OIED) is excited to host a series of workshops for Spring 2023 (February through April). These workshops offer various attendance options, such as in person or virtual and focus on topics ranging from Title IX to social identity development. We encourage you to attend at your convenience and let others know about these workshops. Please review the entire list of workshops and register as you deem appropriate.

Each workshop, with the exception of the two in-person workshops, will have either a Level I or Level II designation.  Level I is an introduction to the topic and a broad overview of concepts. Level II builds upon the fundamentals and offers an in-depth review of concepts.
