    COURSE HIGHLIGHTS

    Leading experts give keynote presentations and conduct roundtable discussions and experiential workshops

    Focus on evidence-based processes to identify and address bias as it affects patient care, health equity and the workforce

    Participants examine their own knowledge and beliefs on diversity and inclusion and gain insights into the rationale and importance of creating a culture of inclusion for employees and our patients

    New skills and processes that reduce bias and increase recruitment, retention, promotion and development of women and minorities are explored
