Equal Opportunity and the Academic Resources Department are again partnering to offer several 60-minute training sessions designed to address challenges that may impact faculty search committees. This training is required for all search committee chairs at least once every two years; all other search committee members are strongly encouraged to attend.

The covered topics include:

• Using PeopleAdmin, UNT’s electronic faculty applicant tracking system to make the work of the committee easier and more efficient
• Best practices for attracting a diverse and inclusive pool of highly qualified candidates
• Ways to ensure a consistent and fair process.
• Appropriate and inappropriate questions to ask candidates in furtherance of UNT’s commitment to diversity and inclusion

Training sessions will be offered via Zoom throughout the Spring 2021 semester, including:
