Does the institution make cultural competence trainings and activities available to all employees?:
Yes

A brief description of the cultural competence trainings and activities:

o Educators for Diversity is dedicated to offering opportunities for educators and community members to learn how to better meet the needs of all youth in schools. Because diversity is the norm in educational settings, educators need to learn about diversity and gain strategies to equitably educate toward common community and university members.
o The Cooperative Extension Cultural Competency and Language Training initiative was developed to proactively address the needs of diverse constituencies serviced through Extension Service programs by providing cultural competency and language training to Cooperative Extension faculty and staff.
o Affirmative Action/Equal Opportunity Office offers a variety of diversity-related trainings. Included in this type of training is a discussion why it is important to understand differences, recognize our own biases, and identify skills in removing cultural and gender barriers. Training is also provided to teaching assistants and to other personnel and students on a requested basis.
