IDE regularly offers the programs listed below. In addition, we often bring
other programs and training opportunities to campus. For example, IDE sponsors
annual campus residencies focused on navigating difficult workplace dynamics by
the Cornell
Interactive Theatre Ensemble and brings workshops about socio-economic
class to campus by Class Action.
Departments and groups are invited to request any of our workshops or
programs for your staff, work group or members, and we will schedule and
customize them to fit your needs. Additionally, we welcome requests for
custom-designed programs.

IDE programs.
Disability & Employment
This 2-hour workshop provides participants with a foundation for
understanding employment issues related to disability and accommodation. It
includes a thorough presentation of relevant laws, definitions, and
accommodation guidelines, as well as an interactive exercise using case
studies.
Diversity 101 and Beyond 101: Diversity Next Steps
Diversity 101 is a 4-hour, interactive workshop designed to enhance
participants' self-awareness and understanding of others by examining issues
related to identity and differences, including gender, race, religion, class,
sexual orientation, and ability/disability. The workshop strives to insure that
all participants see themselves reflected in its materials and exercises, and
it is intended to be challenging, informative, thought provoking, and
rewarding. This program replaces, and covers much of the same ground as,
the Campus of Difference program offered at Dartmouth since 1996. Beyond
101: Diversity Next Steps is a level two workshop for those who have
participated in Diversity 101. It includes extended exploration of gender
related issues (sex, sexual orientation, gender identity/expression) and the
construction of race, as well as Dartmouth-specific case study exercises.
The Dartmouth Diversity Forum meets monthly to provide an opportunity for
members of the staff, faculty, and administration to discuss diversity and
community at Dartmouth. Our focus is both personal growth and institutional
application.
These discussion groups bring together people from across the College
to expand participants' awareness and appreciation of diversity issues; promote
open and extended discussion of diversity issues; and enhance the feeling of
community at Dartmouth.
7 Habits of Highly Effective People
A nationally renowned program, the 7 Habits allows participants to examine
and enhance valuable interpersonal skills and concepts (active listening,
synergy, and paradigm construction) that we believe are crucial for any
individual or group that wishes to honor the notion of "community." 7
Habits is an intensive 28-hour seminar offered in a variety of formats to meet
the needs of our complex work schedules.
Twenty Questions About Dartmouth
A 60 to 90 minute program centered around a 20-question quiz that generates
discussion about Dartmouth and subtly asks what we know about our institution.
We all claim to know the College, but in truth there is an awful lot to
know. And most of us know some parts better than others. The quiz
generates conversation about diversity, campus organization, College history
and the imagined narrative of tradition.
Teaching Science Seminar
This monthly seminar series is sponsored by IDE, the Dartmouth Center for
the Advancement of Learning, and the Dean of the Faculty office, and its goals
are to increase faculty awareness of research related to teaching students in
the sciences, math, and engineering and to explore strategies to improve the
retention and diversity of students.
Understanding Sexual Harassment
Participants in this two-hour workshop find out how this critical issue
affects their daily work environment and learn to recognize and address sexual
harassment in the workplace. Workshop covers definitions, laws, policies and
key issues and includes an interactive role-play based on a compelling video
scenario. Designed for those who have not undergone previous sexual harassment
awareness training.
Video and Film Dialogues
We encourage you to borrow a variety of diversity related films from our
small and growing collection. We can provide discussion questions and
activities to enhance your learning and/or meet for a one-hour consultation
with anyone interested in using a film as part of an office or group
activity.
A complete list of films available for lending can be found by visiting our
Film
Library.
We are building our video collection - if you have something to recommend,
