Inclusive Hiring Workshop – Nov. 20

Join us for the Inclusive Hiring workshop at Redwood Campus on Friday, Nov. 20, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. in Room 122 of the O Building (aka the science building). A light breakfast and lunch will be provided.

Register for the workshop here. Once registered, you’ll receive a calendar invite and, closer to the event, a confirmation email with full details. Supervisors, department chairs and coordinators should plan to attend. All employees are encouraged to participate with supervisor approval.

This workshop offers an opportunity to explore ways to create a more equitable workplace, starting with the recruiting and hiring process. Topics include: 

  • Historical context on how societal factors and civil rights laws shape our workforce. 
  • Legal obligations and best practices in recruiting and skills-based hiring as part of the search committee process.
  • Strategies and resources to help make hiring more equitable, consistent and inclusive.

As a reminder, we have formalized our inclusive hiring efforts by requiring that each search committee include at least one member who has completed the workshop within two years of the search. 

The workshop is offered once per term. Can’t attend this time? Check the Rogue Report to register for future sessions. If you have questions or want more information, we encourage you to contact Cara Lumpkin or Lucia Bartscher on Teams. 

We look forward to seeing you!
