The UDiversity Educational Institute provides a schedule of workshops and other programs to help increase cultural competency across the campus. Many of these trainings are open to the entire campus community, and some are created with specific audiences in mind. Additionally, targeted workshops or trainings may be requested to meet a department or team鈥檚 specific needs.
Workshops may be held in person or online via Zoom technology, and are typically about two hours long.
Upcoming workshops
Over the past few years, the workplace has changed its response to meeting the needs of employees with disabilities.听 According to the National Alliance on Mental Illness, 1 in 5 adults will experience a mental illness each year. Based on the Americans with Disabilities Act听 (ADA,) supervisors and managers need to know how to respond to accommodation requests and how to interact with employees if a disability is disclosed (or not disclosed). In accordance with policy, this training will provide participants with best practices and an understanding of procedures to support faculty/staff and student employees with disabilities to improve accessibility.

Topic: 鈥淚nclusivity and Neurodivergence: teaching and learning in
neurodiverse classrooms鈥
This two-part workshop focuses on the challenges and rewards of university teaching at
a moment when students are increasingly open about being neurodivergent (ND).
Across two sessions, we will cover topics such as: the medical, legal, and social models of
disability and how these play out on university campuses; masking, stimming, and other
foundations of ND culture for neurotypical (NT) instructors; managing accommodations
and classroom dynamics in neurodiverse classrooms; and the craft of creating courses,
assignments, and assessments that support ND students and ND faculty.
Participants will have a greater understanding of ND students and experiences, and
pragmatic tools for immediate classroom implementation.

Over the past few years, the workplace has changed its response to meeting the needs of employees with disabilities. According to the National Alliance on Mental Illness, 1 in 5 adults will experience a mental illness each year. Based on the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA,) supervisors and managers need to know how to respond to accommodation requests and how to interact with employees if a disability is disclosed (or not disclosed). In accordance with policy, this training will provide participants with best practices and an understanding of procedures to support faculty/staff and student employees with disabilities to improve accessibility.
