Training
Equity, diversity, inclusion and accesibility are areas that the Ted Rogers School of Management is committed to delivering education and training around. Training activities happen throughout the year and are offered to all staff and students, to help bring cultural change to the institution and beyond.
In the Fall 2022 semester, the TRSM Anti-Black Racism Awareness Committee completed the second round of anti-Black racism training for faculty and staff, totalling over 150 who’ve thus far participated. Facilitated by Delia Joseph and Karen Ridd, the three-hour workshops used a combination of personal reflection, group discussion and online exercises.
