Submitted by Human Capital Services - Learning and Development

Beyond Race: Diversity and Inclusion in the Workplace will be offered from 8 a.m. to noon Thursday, Oct. 31, in the K-State Alumni Center Banquet Room C.

  • Explore diversity in action.

  • Gaining an awareness of cultural norms and communication strategies for a diverse workplace.

You must be a current supervisor of university support staff or unclassified professionals to attend this session. This session is offered in conjunction with the K-State Supervisory Foundations Pillar I: Establishing Your Supervisory Foundation certificate program, therefore, seating is limited.
