NASPA Peer Education Advisors Faculty: Inclusive Programming

  • Registration Closed

How do we make our program(s) welcoming and provide a sense of belonging to all students? On June 18th at 3pm EST we will explore strategies for inclusive programming. This will include how to inclusively recruit, retain, and train a peer education group, and ideas on how to incorporate inclusive practices into workshops, office hours, and other outreach opportunities. This session will be a great opportunity to fine tune and incorporate inclusive ideas and actions for the fall. 

The Peer Education Faculty will host a PowerPoint presentation and then participants will break into smaller groups to share thoughts and ideas. Below are the processing questions we have for the day.

  1. Name up to three things that you learned in today’s session 
  2. Name up to two things that you plan to apply from today’s session 
  3. What is one question that you still have or something that you are still curious about from today’s session * 

*will be shared in the large group via chat
