New Talent Development catalog to kick off Feb. 5, 2025
(Flint, Mich., Jan. 14, 2025) Local talent development provider Flint & Genesee Education & Talent is launching its quarterly Talent Development catalog. The division, a part of the Flint & Genesee Group, is offering a range of training from the Future of Hiring to Canva 101 for Business. New this quarter is the DEI Champion Certificate Series led by the Flint & Genesee Group’s Executive Director of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion and Community Engagement, Sandra Etherly-Johnson.
“We are pleased to partner with our organization’s DEI expert to offer this insightful and important series,” says Brianna Mosier, executive director of Flint & Genesee Education & Talent. “Alongside that series, we have other amazing new trainings, including a Mini Leadership Series and a BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) Series.”
The DEI Champion Certificate Series is a three-part training program in March, April, and May. It will cover topics such as Understanding Diversity, Equity & Inclusion; Identity, Power, and Privilege; and Corporate Social Responsibility.
“We know when employees feel valued, engaged, and included, amazing things can happen,” says Etherly-Johnson. “With this series, we are aiming to deepen individuals’ understanding of DEI both in the workplace and society so that they can spark awareness, inspire meaningful conversations, and make a change.”
After the series, DEI Champions will not only gain knowledge and skills but also special access to the DEI Champion Training site, which includes a library of DEI educational resources, and a DEI Champion badge that they can use in their email signatures and on company websites.
Other workshops offered by Flint & Genesee Education & Talent between February and May 2025 include Turning Your Goals into Reality, Grant Writing 201, and Social Awareness – The Ultimate Level of Emotional Intelligence.
