Trainings and Workshops

A Racial Healing Circle is an opportunity for individuals from diverse backgrounds to share their stories in a safe, brave, and responsible space.  The Racial Healing Circles are facilitated by trained RHC Practitioners.  Each circle is designed for specialized audiences and particular goals based on the group, organization, and/or institution.

In studies conducted at colleges and universities nationwide, military-affiliated students reported feeling that other members of their campus community did not appreciate, understand, or respect their service. The training provides the Rutgers community and our partners with a general overview of military culture, structure and norms that govern those who serve and impact their transition from the military to college and the workplace.  Professionals and students will walk away with the knowledge to more easily communicate with our military-affiliated students.

Safe(R) Space is a campus wide program designed to visibly identify students, staff, and faculty peers who support the LGBTQIA population, understand some of the issues facing LGBTQIA individuals, and are aware of various LGBTQIA-affirming resources on campus.
 

Office of Information Technology Accesibility is provided general web and digital accessibility training sessions. At the end of these sessions, attendees should be able to:

• Understand policies set by Rutgers regarding web and digital accessibility.
• Use scanning tools to test for accessibility issues on websites and documents.
• Know how to do manual testing on sites for accessibility issues.
• Understand common issues and how to fix them.
• Learn how to include accessibility during early site development efforts.

We serve as a campus resource that promotes understanding and engagement on issues related to diversity and bias prevention, increasing the capacity of the campus community to engage across differences.
