2026 ACSA Personnel Institute

This workshop helps participants develop practical activities and strategies to build and sustain a diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplace. It emphasizes creating an environment grounded in trust, open communication, and positive cross-departmental relationships; recognizing and respecting each team member’s contributions; and reliably following through on commitments. The workshop also encourages regular self-examination of implicit biases and establishes agreed-upon procedures for addressing microaggressive behaviors, with a goal of establishing and maintaining organizational belonging. These goals are integral to ongoing district workforce support and will be practiced through interactive exercises and guided discussions.
