Re-envisioning Diverse Student Recruitment Through Inclusive Language, Support and Understanding

Hosted by the AACP

Join us for part two of a transformative webinar series, continuing the exploration of diverse student recruitment strategies through the lens of belonging. Building upon the foundational insights from part one, this session delves deeper into essential strategies aimed at fostering inclusivity and support throughout the recruitment process. In this installment, we'll unveil three additional strategies recommended by the Diverse Student Recruitment and Retention Advisory Committee, further enriching your recruitment toolkit: Use Inclusive Language, Normalize Difficulties, Highlight Support Resources.  

Objectives:

  • Understand the significance of using inclusive language in recruitment communications to resonate with a diverse audience and create a welcoming environment for all prospective students.
  • Illustrate effective strategies for normalizing difficulties that students may encounter during their academic journey and explore proactive approaches to address these challenges in recruitment interactions.
  • Outline how to highlight and effectively showcase the wide array of support resources available to prospective students, fostering a sense of reassurance and belonging from the outset of the recruitment process
