Search Committee Training
Search Committee Training
This training is designed to ensure equitable and non-discriminatory search practices, fostering a welcoming environment for all candidates. The presentation will help guide your committee to conduct an inclusive search focused on equity, ensuring that all candidates receive full and fair consideration, regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, religion, disability, or other protected characteristics.
One goal for the UW Medicine Office of Healthcare Equity is to increase faculty diversity in the UW School Of Medicine. We have developed a presentation for search committees with the goal of increasing faculty diversity in the UWSOM, titled: Search Committee Best Practices: Diversity = Excellence. The presentation highlights the need to increase diversity, best/effective practices to promote diversity, how unconscious bias affects workforce diversity, and ways to mitigate the effects of unconscious bias in resident/faculty search and promotion. The presentation will help guide your committee to conduct an inclusive search.
Please contact Sahar N Rooholamini, srooh@uw.edu, Assistant Dean for Faculty Recruitment and Retention, for any additional support or training.
