The National Diversity Council will hold its inaugural DiversityFIRSTâ„¢ Certification Program December 4 to 8 at the University of Central Florida. The purpose of the program is to prepare participants to create and lead highly successful diversity and inclusion strategies for organizational excellence.
“I am happy to see the growth of the DiversityFIRST™ Certification Program in Florida,�? said Dennis Kennedy, founder and chairman of the National Diversity Council. “Each year, we make improvements to the program and ensure our graduates have the tools and knowledge to positively impact diversity and inclusion in their organizations.�?
With a highly-qualified faculty, the DiversityFIRSTâ„¢ Certification Program blends theory and practice during a 5-day intensive curriculum focusing on the business case for diversity and inclusion, cultural competence, measurement and accountability, inclusive leadership, and best practices.
