Does the sustainability office ensure that sustainability employees complete DEI training?:
Yes
A brief description of the DEI trainings for sustainability employees:
Sustainability employees are required to take a training entitled "Avoiding Unconscious Bias in the Hiring Process" when they participate in Hiring Committees. Find more information at https://training.humboldt.edu/content/hsu-workshop-avoiding-unconscious-bias-hiring-process-42.
In addition, one employee from the sustainability office will participate in a "Moving Beyond Bias" Train-the-Trainer learning opportunity, sponsored by the UC and CSU systems sometime during the 2020-2021 Fiscal Year. The goal of the training is to deepen understanding of how bias works and what our campus can do to mitigate bias to build an even stronger campus community. More information can be found on the Moving Beyond Bias website at https://movingbeyondbias.org/.

One current idea for future development in this area is to create learning modules and/or lectures entitled "Moving Beyond Environmentalism: Social Dimensions of Sustainability" that would be offered in a developing Faculty Learning Community with the Center for Teaching and Learning and that could also be deployed during various events, conferences, and summits throughout the year at HSU, including but not limited to Social Justice Summit, Community Dialogue on Race, Earth Week and more. This content has yet to be developed and deployed.
