Diversity, Equity, and Inclusiveness Statement for UPCEA Conferences
UPCEA’s Commitment to Diversity and Inclusive Excellence extends to its conferences and participants.
UPCEA calls on all members and member institutions to assume personal and institutional responsibility for the recognition and elimination of inequity and barriers to member engagement or success.
UPCEA events utilize attendees’ web cameras and feature both real-time and asynchronous discussions or chats. These activities are not required and UPCEA encourages attendees to participate in the way they feel most comfortable.
UPCEA events are an opportunity to invest in your own professional growth. While not ideal, personal and professional distractions and scheduling conflicts will occur. Attendees are encouraged to reserve time on their calendars to attend sessions when they can and access session recordings when available.
UPCEA encourages all to respect the value of diversity.
UPCEA conferences will be spaces where diversity, equity, access, and inclusion are fundamentally reflected not only across sessions, but also through the companies we partner with to sponsor and host these important gatherings.
UPCEA is committed to cultivating a professional community space in which members of all races, ethnicities, orientations, gender identities, abilities, and backgrounds, and the institutions they serve, feel welcome, heard, and valued.
UPCEA institutional and individual members participating in our conferences reflect a rich tapestry of viewpoints, values, talents, and experiences. It is expected that participants will demonstrate, in words and actions, an openness to considering differences in perspectives shared during presentations and discussions.
As a committed body of diverse members, UPCEA pledges to forever strive for inclusive excellence as we serve as an essential industry resource.
Conferences and its attendees create an environment that enables inclusive excellence in all forms.
Presenters strive to address diversity, equity, and inclusion in purposeful and relevant ways in their presentation and to facilitate respectful discussion among participants.
Participants will listen with the intent to understand, think broadly, lean into discomfort, and engage in respectful dialogue with thoughtful regard for the challenges and opportunities encountered during the pursuit of diversity, equity, access, and inclusion in professional, continuing, and online education.
