Training for Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion
Change Leaders and Facilitators

Certificate & CE Optional

DEI Change Facilitators and DEI Leaders need support, knowledge, and tools to expand their skills and achieve their goals

Based on current scientific evidence, and developed and delivered by experienced facilitators and nationally recognized experts, our Change Facilitator Certificate Program provides participants with the knowledge, strategies, tactics, and materials they need to lead positive and lasting change. If you have, or anticipate having, responsibility for advancing Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) goals in your organization, this program is for you.

Program Details

People benefit most from training when the concepts, knowledge, skills, examples, and activities are clearly relevant to their unique situations, strengths, challenges, and goals. We use small groups and a combination of workshops, one-on-one expert coaching, and guided individualized asynchronous learning experiences to ensure each participant gains the skills, tools, and confidence they need.
