ROCKET Trainings

Are you a teacher or admin staff in a university? Do you want to learn more about effective ways to address conflict, including issues related to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI)? Are you interested in experiential learning methods for practicing socio-emotional skills? Consider joining one of the ROCKET online trainings this fall.

These trainings are free for UG staff members and will take place in a Critical Virtual Exchange (CVE): an innovative format that includes asynchronous discussions with video conferencing sessions.
