Professional Development Workshops

The UDiversity Educational Institute provides a schedule of workshops and other programs to help increase cultural competency across the campus. Many of these trainings are open to the entire campus community, and some are created with specific audiences in mind. Additionally, targeted workshops or trainings may be requested to meet a department or team’s specific needs. 

Workshops may be held in person or online via Zoom technology, and are typically about two hours long.

This workshop is being held online via Zoom. This section of the training will provide information on how to respond to an accommodation request for a disability from job applicants or candidates during the search process. Participants will learn how to engage in conversation before, during, and after the hiring process to ensure adherence to ADA federal law. Case studies will be used to provide more in-depth examples of common accommodations and challenges that may occur in navigating communication around accommodations and disability. This training will be for those that lead and participate on search committees or in a supervisory or chair role. This training is sponsored by the Affirmative Action Office.

If you anticipate a need for disability-related accommodations or auxiliary aids to attend or participate in any event, please contact UCTD at uctd@binghamton.edu. We ask that you provide us with at least 3-5 days of advance notice regarding your equal access needs.
