A brief description of the cultural competence trainings and activities:

Sexual Harassment, Awareness, Responsibility & Prevention (SHARP) Training: Promoting education and awareness of the definitions and consequences of sexual harassment is an essential element for reducing and eradicating incidences of sexual harassment across the campus community. Hence, the Sexual Harassment, Responsibility, and Prevention Program (SHARP) has been developed to promote awareness and prevention of sexual harassment, and to educate the UAlbany community on the nature and seriousness of this offense.

Diversity Training: The Office of Diversity and Inclusion will work closely with university departments, units and organizations to develop relevant training programs. Programs are not limited to one training model or method, but will include a basic curriculum made up of activities which can be adapted to fit the needs of the group requesting diversity education training. The Program will be divided into 3 entities: 1) speaker series; 2) campus wide brown bag dialogues; and 3) a train the trainer workshop. There will also be modules that go more in-depth for specific issues such as cross-cultural communication, race and ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender issues, disabilities, etc.
