DEI Certificate Program Kick-Off and Orientation

The Rackham Professional Development Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Certificate Program (DEICP) Kick-Off and Orientation is for new and returning participants of the DEI certificate program. Please join us as we introduce new members to the program, eat together, and do some activities and reflection around our own social identities. For orientation, we will focus on how to navigate the program, introduction to the Intercultural Development Inventory, and expectations for completing the certificate.

The Agenda for the Kick-Off and Orientation is as follows:

3:30 to 5:00 p.m.: food, meet fellow participants, identity activity and reflection

5:00 to 6:00 p.m.: for new members to get an orientation to the overall DEICP

Returning members may leave once we begin the orientation portion
