As part of our vision to enhance our diverse and inclusive campus, and in honor of receiving four National HEED (Higher Education Excellence in Diversity) Awards from Insight into Diversity Magazine, we offer a certificate course on Diversity and Inclusion for administrators, faculty, and staff.

The Diversity and Inclusion Course focuses on enhancing cultural competencies and religious fluency by empowering the participants on understanding global issues such as disability, mental health, religion, LGBTQ+, cultural competency, and gender bias. Through the Union College Division of Diversity and Inclusion, we have designed a course covering topics related to equity, social justice and implicit bias that are relevant for the academic, social, and co-curricular learning spaces.

Participants complete a final project on any of the covered diversity issues as they relate to their department, their division, or the campus.
