Welcome to Spring 2025 Professional Development Week (PDW)!
Theme: Embracing Resilient Educators
Focus on the workshops that best suit your professional development goals and schedule. A wide range of offerings is provided, so pick the ones that will benefit you the most.
This session focuses on introducing basic language and terminology while creating a space for questions. We will cover the differences between sexual orientation and gender identity, as well as expand on the additional types of diverse identities that fall under the LGBTQ+ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer) umbrella. This course explores best practices for engaging with the LGBTQ+ community, tips for supporting colleagues that come out as LGBTQ+, and strategies for supporting the community through allyship.
