About this event

Building more inclusive environments require members of the community to understand how exclusion happens. Raising our self-awareness aids in this constant effort. This session will examine and engage the concepts, implicit biases and micro-aggressions, and how these dynamics bear on our workplaces. Join us for a robust and fun learning experience.

Please note: The demand for and popularity of RIHETC's spring workshops series has been outstanding. To ensure that all member institutions are able to participate, each institution will have 8 seats reserved until April 14. Registration will remain open for everyone until April 23 or until the workshop is full, but due to capacity limits we are unable to guarantee registered employees a seat. We will also maintain a waiting list for those unable to register initially. You will receive a separate registration confirmation email from RIHETC@gmail.com if capacity limits allow for your enrollment into the workshop. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
