Twenty-three employees
among EOI graduates
Twenty-three university employees are among 30 people who are the most recent graduates of NC State’s Equal Opportunity Institute (EOI).
The EOI is a unique certificate program open to all faculty, staff and students, as well as the general public. The institute is designed to provide participants a means for developing a comprehensive understanding of equal opportunity issues.
Participants learn about equal opportunity, diversity, affirmative action, discrimination and harassment, and university policies and procedures. They learn how this information can be applied in their day-to-day activities and interactions, and complete an individually designed education plan.
The graduates completed at least 30 hours of classroom learning experiences related to equal opportunity, taking classes such as Americans with Disabilities Act, Unlawful Workplace Harassment, Intercultural Communications, The Protected Class Series and Diversity in the Workplace: A Business Perspective. EOI graduates had an opportunity to experience presentations from many areas of campus, the Raleigh community, the Research Triangle, and the federal government.
