IMPACT Academy Trainers
How will you as a facilitrainer amplify the important work happening through the IMPACT Academy?
“As a supervisor, I am making sure my staff knows that these opportunities exist and encouraging them to participate as often as they can. I am also in the beginning stages of figuring out how to bring IMPACT Academy into the department to begin to build out the DEI training and content knowledge of the staff working in University Housing. IMPACT Academy in my eyes is the vehicle that will allow us to advance the DEI work that is desperately needed on our campus.”
