Pre-Work

The symposium includes the following pre-work to support attendees in having a shared baseline of knowledge. Pre-work and attendance at the symposium will provide professional development hours (PDHs) that can be applied toward the new IOA micro-credential in DEIB that is currently being developed as well as CO-OP® recertification.

A note about creating a safe learning environment for all participants:  IOA has created this learning experience as an opportunity for ombuds to advance their understanding of these issues and apply them to practice.  And we also recognize that DEIB learning benefits from individualized work and personal reflection that takes place outside the confines of formal education and group work.  As Resmaa Menakem reminded us at the 2022 Annual Conference, there are no shortcuts or workarounds; we all need to move through clean pain and healing.  

Thank you for spending time reviewing these resources prior to the event. See you at the symposium!
