Learn about the components of DEI statements—which are becoming an increasingly integral part of job market materials—and the role of these statements in your applications. In this workshop, you will critically reflect on what diversity means to you, how you demonstrate a commitment to diversity, as well as to begin articulating how these values are apparent in your current practice and future goals. For this workshop, you will watch a few videos and complete pre-work in Canvas and apply what you have learned in the Zoom session on 10/2.

To learn more and self-enroll in the fall Canvas site, visit http://bit.ly/fall20tps. Once you have joined the Canvas course, you can register for a session using the Canvas Calendar function. If a session is full, it will not appear on your calendar. 

Participants who complete multiple sessions will receive a Certificate of Completion that acts as a credential demonstrating your investment in professional development to future employers.  Complete 3 sessions and upload a qualifying reflection for a Teaching Preparation Certificate; complete 7 sessions and submit a qualifying Teaching Statement for an Advanced Teaching Preparation Certificate. Please feel free to contact Laura Struve at struve@austin.utexas.edu with further questions.  We look forward to working with you!
