“Fundamentals of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB)” is an insightful, short-form course designed for beginners interested in starting their DEIB journey in the workplace. As we navigate through increasingly diverse social and professional landscapes, understanding DEIB is no longer optional–it is imperative. This course aims to equip participants with the necessary tools and insights to effectively advocate for DEIB initiatives in professional settings. The course begins by asking participants to craft their own personal DEIB statements, then provides a comprehensive explanation of key DEIB concepts. Later in the course, participants will brainstorm possible DEIB initiatives that can be used in their organizations. Lastly, participants will end the course by revisiting and revising their personal DEIB statement with the hope that they will be empowered to champion DEIB work within their workplaces.
