Faculty and staff are invited to join a new learning initiative designed to foster a welcoming and inclusive learning and professional environment at Miami.

As the student and employee populations, constituents and community partners of Miami University are becoming more diverse, the university is committed to expanding its faculty and staff’s knowledge on issues of diversity and equity, enhancing cultural competencies, and strengthening the practice of inclusion to create a culture of belonging.

The 18-hour Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) Certificate Program is designed to provide a valuable professional development opportunity for Miami faculty and staff to help increase individual aptitude and knowledge in foundational concepts of diversity, equity and inclusion, provide ongoing opportunities to build upon their capability to appreciate differing perspectives, and gain valuable skills to contribute to a welcoming and inclusive learning and professional environment at Miami.

Participation is open to all full time faculty and staff on the Oxford, Hamilton, Middletown and Voice of America campuses.
