Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) Counselor
Overview:
This is a unique two-day course that will enable EEO Counselors to receive the practical and legal information necessary for the informal resolution of discrimination complaints. Trainees will be treated to an interactive program with hands-on workshops and exercises about:
- The role of the counselor;
- Equal Employment Laws & Policies;
- How to professionally resolve conflicts;
- Employee rights during an informational process;
- Overcoming cultural, gender, and other barriers through enhanced listening and communication skills; and
- Drafting counselor reports.
During the two-day experience there will also be plenty of time to address other issues of importance to EEO Counselors. How can I make sure that my important role is recognized within my department? How do I deal with complicated facts involving more than one allegation? When should I refer a matter to my EEO Officer or other Department official?
Objective:
This class provides EEO Counselors and those who need similar information to understand the basics of their roles as EEO Counselors, and to receive practical, useful hands-on experience in activities relevant to their positions.
Intended Audience:
All employees who are, have been, or may be appointed as EEO Counselors within their departments. EEO Officers and supervisors or EEO Counselors will also benefit from this course.
