Start the new year prepared to create an inclusive environment and fight DE&I fatigue. At Ragan's Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Certificate Course for Communicators you'll learn how to create safe spaces that support vital conversations, accommodate employees' unique diversity needs, and rejuvenate employee engagement with your diversity efforts. Join us January 17, 24, & 31 and tailor your DE&I messaging to your organization's unique goals with the help of industry experts. In just one module, you'll learn:

• Understanding and implementing employee resource groups (ERGs): Enhance employee engagement, promote diversity, and support an inclusive workplace culture by developing ERGs of interest. You’ll learn how to identify areas of interest, form committees, set clear objectives, and establish communication channels for company-wide awareness and participation.
• C-suite buy-in: Techniques to recruit sympathetic executives to become internal champions of DE&I, including joining ERGs as sponsors.
• Policies and procedures: How to develop anti-discrimination and anti-harassment policies, clear procedures for reporting and addressing incidents, and strategies to share with your organization.
• Training and education: How to assess training needs for employees, develop tailored content or evaluate potential externally provided courses or materials, and strategies to roll out across your organization effectively and with minimal disruption to employee’s work.
• Recruitment and retention: Steps to take to revise non-inclusive recruitment strategies to attract a more diverse talent pool, how to socialize changes among employees, and initiatives to implement to help retain diverse talent.
