Many employers – not just colleges and universities – have made a commitment to hiring and retaining a diverse and inclusive staff. As part of that approach, many job applications ask that you include a Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Statement in your application materials. But what exactly is a DEI statement, and what goes in it? We will address those and other questions in this workshop on Writing Your DEI Statements
