Setting the Bar: Advancing Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility

It’s one thing to say you support DEIA efforts at your agency, but how do you do that?

This training will provide the foundation you need to jumpstart your DEIA efforts or take them to the next level. We’ll cover the concept of belonging, preventing and correcting harassment and discrimination, microaggressions, biases, and more.

Learning objectives

• Identify the laws, regulations and Executive Orders that require your agency to promote DEIA in the workplace.
• Understand legally problematic selection processes and learn remedies to overcome the imbalance.
• Overcome the tendency to exhibit microaggressions in the workplace.

Event FAQs

Is there any flexibility with course durations for Agency Direct training? 

Yes. Many agencies have requested that full-day courses be taught over two half-days to ensure maximum engagement, especially when the course is being taught virtually. Any course can be spread out over multiple days or condensed into shorter sessions. And shorter classes can often be combined to build longer courses covering more topics. We’ll be happy to discuss the options that are most convenient to you.

In what format is this class held?

The class may be held onsite at an agency location, or as a live virtual event. Virtual events are generally held using your agency’s platform (Zoom, WebEx, Teams, etc.). In certain situations where FELTG hosts, the event will be held on Zoom or Teams.

Can I earn CLE credits for this class?

CLE applications are the responsibility of each attendee; FELTG does not apply for the credits on behalf of attendees. If you are seeking CLE credit, you may use the materials provided by FELTG in submission to your state bar. You may also request a certificate of completion which will contain the number of training hours attended.
