The Office to Advance Women, Equity & Diversity (AWED) offers four types of STRIDE workshops (Strategies and Tactics for Recruitment to Increase Diversity and Excellence), all workshops are facilitated by faculty members.
Hiring/Faculty Recruitment Workshop
Designed to provide background information and concrete advice about practices that make searches more successful (in producing diverse candidate pools and hiring candidates). Attendance is required once every three years for faculty serving on search committees. A list of attendees that are STRIDE-certified is available. Search committee members do NOT have to come as a group; feel free to sign up for a workshop at a time convenient to you. If you remember coming previously and are not on the list, that means it is time for you to renew your attendance.

Diversity Advocate Workshop
One member of each search committee will be recommended by AWED to attend this advanced recruitment workshop. DAs must first have attended the STRIDE Hiring workshop. This new requirement is being phased in over the next three years beginning with tenure-line faculty searches. DAs are expected to attend one post-search meeting.
Tenure and Promotion Workshop
This new requirement will begin in Fall 2020; it is now part of the Tenure and Promotion guidelines. All College Tenure and Promotion Committee members, Department Chairs, and Deans must attend the T&P workshop in 2020-2021 and once every five years. New committee members, department chairs and deans should attend in their first year of appointment.
