Discovering Diversity Training Baltimore MD

By Arthur Harris


Inclusion, whether in public places or the workplace can often be a difficult issue. While this is the case, Diversity Training Baltimore MD and other areas are at the forefront when it comes to resolving such problems. One reason this is the case is that the Baltimore Attorney General is intent on educating employers and the public about issues in this area.

Currently, the sitting Attorney General is administering and enforcing Federal and State laws related to equal opportunity employment such as promoting a fair and safe work place which is free of retaliation, harassment, discrimination or bias. The office also believes it is important to answer to, and reflect the diverse communities of the state.

In seeing diversity as a positive aspect of society, the Baltimore Attorney General believes that it is a key to problem solving and increased productivity in various work environments. Whereas, through acceptance of diverse individuals and communities, business and community relationships have grown over the years. In large part, this growth along with a commitment towards equality and justice has helped create better work environments and a more peaceful society at large.

It is also this commitment which has resulted in the office hiring a diverse yet qualified staff through creating a number of initiatives. One of these programs, sponsored by the Attorney General was created to foster sensitivity and diversity in the workplace. The primary focus of the group to date has been on four main areas. These areas include, retention, hiring, education, events, training programs, advice and legislation.

Other programs offered in this area include the Unconscious Bias Training in which individuals learn more about how the unconscious mind works. For example, most individuals experience having a brain flooded with millions of pieces of data though only being able to process a small portion. As unconscious biases effect every individual, this class helps individuals learn how such biases effect decision-making and how to eliminate the biases in the future.

The Community Law in Action Corporate Mentoring Program in association with the CLIA's Law and Leadership Academy trains high school juniors and seniors in the greater Baltimore area. In this program, students learn how to locate internships in different areas of the legal field while developing and strengthening existing skills. In many cases, these programs and internships are the first access students have to a professional work environment.

A collaborative effort between several law firms and the Attorney General work to attract a number of diverse students whom have shown exceptional leadership qualifies. In most cases, the students selected have also participated in community and public service programs and shown devotion towards the public good. Students lucky enough to be involved in these programs and internships can reflect such experience on college applications, often making it easier to get into a college of choice.

Regardless of the type of program an individual attends, it is essential to be aware of scams. Whether offering programs without the proper training or charging excessively high registration rates, there are a number of entities posing as these training programs. As a result, before registering for programs in the private sector, it is often advised that individuals run background checks and obtain references from prior students if possible.
