CCC | Equitable Hiring Practices Curriculum (Training)
Equitable hiring supports student success. Every stage in the hiring process is an opportunity to increase the diversity of faculty, staff and administrators. Divided into three stages, pre-hiring, hiring and post-hiring, the EEO Hiring Curriculum reviews equitable hiring practices designed to increase the diversity of professionals across the campus. Concrete examples, scenarios and directed reflections are provided to help you adopt and adapt these practices to fit your needs.  NOTE: You must complete this entire curriculum in sequential order to receive a certificate of completion.

By focusing on the core skills necessary for effective counseling, we can create an including and supportive environment for all students. The “Equity-Centered Counseling Curriculum” reviews the foundations of equity-centered counseling as well as what you need to know about equitable placement and strategies for counseling different populations.  

CCC EEO Plan Data Analyses Curriculum (Training)
The EEO Plans are a critical tool in identifying actions colleges can take to increase meaningful inclusion, accessibility, and equity in outcomes for individuals from diverse communities. The EEO Plan Data Analyses guide us in identifying where to focus our time and resources to have the greatest positive impact in achieving our mission to provide high-quality educational experiences for our diverse student communities.

The training has been designed for EEO committee members, human resources professionals, screening committee members, executive managers, and other individuals involved in developing, implementing, or revising recruitment, screening, hiring, professional development, retention, and other employment processes which impact workforce diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility.  

City College of San Francisco strives to foster an atmosphere of inclusivity and accessibility where individuals feel understood, valued, supported, and connected to the campus community. Acknowledging the unique backgrounds, experiences, perspectives, and aspirations of our college community can develop more inclusive and equitable approaches. Let’s humanize together!

We will focus on equity-minded workshops that cover key topics such as cultivating empathy, personalized learning, community building, communication, and accessibility and will aim to provide practical insights and strategies for faculty, classified professionals, and administrators to create equitable, inclusive, and student-centered environments.

One Flex strand was identified to support these efforts, which is important for the success of the College in meeting the needs of our students by assisting in further enhancing student achievement and providing additional innovation opportunities for all. It is a goal of �ȷ�����’s Education Master Plan (EMP), which serves as the College’s long-range strategic blueprint for all institutional planning and program development from 2018-2025.

Consider how to address diversity, inclusivity, equity, and belonging in the following areas: 

• Promote culturally responsive communication 

• Improve accessibility 

• Gender and race-conscious evaluation 

• Design of institutional practices and systems, critical self-reflection, culturally relevant and inclusive pedagogy 

• Diversification of recruitment, retention, and hiring practices
