Participants consider the ways in which they have experienced marginalization or contributed to the marginalization of others in the workplace. These experiences are countered with belonging strategies, such as inclusive language, micro- affirmations, amplification, and the formation of alliances to create meaningful change. These strategies empower participants to contribute to more equitable, inclusive workplaces for all. This module is one of three that make up the Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging in the Workplace micro-certificate series. Modules must be completed in sequential order, as each module builds on the skills in the previous module.

Further strategies are explored for engaging in courageous conversations, acting in alignment with equity-oriented values, and committing to allyship efforts across socio-cultural identities. Participants are encouraged to develop short- and long-term strategies to support their own growth as allies, expand their capacity for being comfortable with being uncomfortable, and recognize that each of us has a role to play in creating lasting transformative change in the workplace. The third module in this three-part series makes up the Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging micro-certificate series. Modules must be completed in sequential order, as each module builds on the skills in the previous module.

Consequently, students explore the use of VR in the cognitive, psychomotor and affective domains, and, as educators, develop an understanding of its pedagogical potential. Students are required to have a VR headset to take this course. BUSN 0237 l 18 HRS
