Diversity Network’s custom training sessions are high-quality and budget-  friendly workshops where professionals from your institution or  organization can learn how to increase participation and better serve the  needs of diverse and underrepresented students. Our customized  workshops, delivered by seasoned professionals, bring cost-effective  quality training directly to your institution/organization — eliminating  travel  time and expenses, and increasing the number and diversity of  staff and  faculty who can participate.

We recognize that each institution is unique, as such the Diversity Network custom designs each training curriculum for the specific needs of each site, based on:

• Demographics of students, faculty and staff;
• Type of professionals who will attend;
• Practices, programs, and services currently in place;
• Real-life situations and practical solutions tailored to fit each institution.

Our training sessions focus on seven core categories that will assist you and your colleagues in effectively recruiting, advising and serving the needs of diverse and underrepresented students before, during and after an international education experience.
