Diversity Council's charge is to create strategic action to institutionally harness the productive power of difference.
Office of Diversity & Inclusion has a dual focused mission: On a macro level, we work with all campus stakeholders to create an inclusive, interculturally competent campus and equip all constituents with the tools to thrive in a global, multicultural and interdependent world. On an equally focused, but micro level, we provide specialized support services for underrepresented populations, ensuring they have a successful experience at Champlain and beyond.

A brief description of the cultural competence trainings and activities:
Intercultural U — Champlain's intercultural training certification program is an innovative program designed to prepare members of the Champlain to serve as peer trainers and champions and intercultural/diversity facilitators.
As an Institution committed to creating an inclusive campus and graduating global citizens equipped to thrive in a multicultural and interdependent world, we recognize the need to have a systemic approach to building intercultural competence, a common language for our inclusion discussions and work and a team of qualified in house educators, 'experts' and facilitators that both represent AND can speak to various campus stakeholders. The certification program addresses all of these needs.
The program comprises 25 hours of training provided in 2 hour modules. The program is open to all interested members of the Champlain community (faculty, administrators and staff) who are willing to commit to their own development and are willing to assist in the development of others on campus. It is an incredible investment of time, but it will time well spent as you become part of an engaged community of action with a common framework, develop further on your personal intercultural journey and become better equipped to move the college towards its diversity and inclusion goals.
Student Leaders have their own personalized trainings; all students are encouraged to participate in D&I programming.
In addition, the Department of Residential Life and Student Activities has a Associate Director of Student Diversity Programs who coordinates a student Diversity Programming Team who offers a variety of events on campus.
