What is our EDI Peer Trainer Program?

All UW Medicine employees (faculty and staff) are required to participate in OHCE’s EDI Foundational Training curriculum, which consists of five 90-minute synchronous training sessions with either a Subject Matter Expert or certified EDI Peer Trainer.  The Peer Trainer Program produces a well-trained team of EDI peer trainers to work closely with OHCE in delivering these trainings and efficiently bring this curriculum to all members of our community.

Our EDI Peer Trainer Program is a great opportunity for those who are committed to EDI work and have an interest in developing their skills as an educator. Our EDI peer trainers have diverse interests and roles in our community, inclusive of clinical, research, administrative, and educational settings.   We seek trainers who are faculty and staff at all levels across UW Medicine.
