The UCEDD and LEND program are hosting a virtual “Breaking the Bias Habit” training from 9am-noon on September 27 with Dr. William Cox. There is no cost for Waisman Center faculty, staff, students, postdocs, or other trainees to participate if you have not participated in the past. The following link can be used to register.
Over the past 15 years, Dr. Cox and his colleagues have developed and experimentally tested the bias habit-breaking intervention, which Dr. Cox will share through this session. This training:
- Equips attendees with a deeper understanding of ways that race bias, gender bias, or other intergroup biases can seep into judgments and behavior unintentionally, and
- Empowers people to reduce the influence of those biases by teaching a set of concrete evidence-based tools for reducing biases and creating inclusion.
