Trainings & Workshops

DEI Leadership Program

The Royal Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion (DE&I) Leadership Program is a semester-long program which will assist participants in expanding and deepening their cultural competence to build awareness/attitudes, knowledge, and skills to effectively interact with other cultures. The program also increases participants’ cultural humility which challenges individuals to interrogate their own biases and is a humble acknowledgement that one cannot know everything about other cultures and recognizes that learning about other cultures is a lifelong goal and process.  The 15-hour program combines in-person workshops with asynchronous assignments, and off-campus experiences.  The focus areas for the program include identity, communication, ally ship, and interfaith cooperation.
