More Than Just a Conference: The Journey of Professional Development Academy Participants

Author
  • Arnold Woods (Iowa State University)

Abstract

Each year a cohort of 20 Iowa State University professionals are selected to be a part of a Professional Development Academy. This year long experience is a commitment to increasing their awareness, knowledge and skills as it relates to race and ethnicity. They engage in a dialogical process that builds their awareness and connection to other professionals across campus. A group of Iowa State professionals will provide insight on how structure and support helped them maximize their conference experience. Participants will leave this session with an understanding of the benefits in participating in the Professional Development Academy and an understanding of roles faculty and staff play in impacting campus climate.
