Nonprofit HR, consultants for the ADEA Climate Study, will share key findings from the inaugural ADEA Climate Study and baseline data collected. The climate study was conducted in spring 2022 and included 258 participating U.S. and Canadian dental schools and allied dental education programs.
In this session, Nonprofit HR consultants will share data and major findings from 5 of the 10 categories covered within the climate study (Overall Climate, Humanistic Environment, Equitable Policies & Practices, Cultural Competence, and Harassment & Discrimination). Participants will be asked to discuss the findings shared and in small groups share strategies and interventions that could be deployed across dental education and on campuses. Information on Phase 3 of the ADEA Climate Study will also be shared.
Learning Objectives:
Summarize key ADEA climate study findings across the 5 survey categories.
Describe the major data themes that emerged from the climate study data regarding students, faculty, staff, administrators, and marginalized populations within these survey groups.
Identify strategies and interventions that could be deployed across dental education and on campuses to address findings.
Discuss Phase 3 ADEA climate study activities to assist participating dental schools and allied dental education programs in their strategies and use of their school/program level findings.
