MSI CIBER Consortium - The Inclusion Competencies Inventory: A Skill Based Approach to Inclusion
Date
Thursday, March 11, 2021 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM
Description
Interested in learning how well equipped your students are for inclusion?
If so, join our webinar describing a new assessment instrument – the Inclusion Competencies Inventory (ICI). To date, diversity research and training has seldom taken a competency-based approach. Instead, training emphasizing white privilege or unconscious bias is more common in some countries, even though it occasionally results in resistance and there is little research evidence that it works. Building on the way we teach cross-cultural differences and utilize intercultural assessments, we focus on an individual-level, competency-based approach that is less likely to engender resistance and more likely to promote personal and organizational change in diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives. After describing the rigorous instrumentation process used to create the ICI, an expert diversity trainer will describe her experiences using the ICI to trigger diversity, equity, and inclusion work in three different organizational settings.
