In this four-part series of workshops, participants will engage in conversation around why and how to center racial equity in recruitment and hiring practices. Participants will learn new strategies to remove unintentional barriers and improve access for candidates by reframing current recruiting and hiring practices through a racial equity lens.
The series will be held in person over 4 weeks. The workshop series is intentionally designed to build off content from the previous session. Participants are expected to attend all sessions, in sequence, to receive the full benefits.
