About the Trainings
Learn more about this training opportunity. This training opportunity is for public health professionals who want to integrate principles of equity, inclusion and diversity into the policies, practices and progress of their team, unit or organization. The workshops are interactive in nature, and the focus is on practical knowledge and skills that participants can apply within the workplace. These workshops were originally created for staff at the North Carolina Division of Public Health, but they are also relevant to professionals at local health departments in North Carolina. Each of these three-hour workshops addresses a different topic related to equity in the workplace. For each workshop, an optional “office hour” session is also available. During office hours, participants have the opportunity to discuss the workshop content with faculty. Please note: registration for this program has now closed. We look forward to seeing all registered participants at the workshops! See schedule and location details. These trainings are 100% virtual (on Zoom). Participants are encouraged to register for all four workshops if their schedule allows, or they can register for individual workshops. More information for Division of Public Health staff.
