Cultural Competence and The Impact of Stereotypes

Participants will learn to develop their cultural competence through interactive exercises, video and lecture.  Participants will examine the effects of stereotypes on target groups and how stereotyping impacts cross cultural relationships.  Questions like: how are we perceived by others; what messages do we hear about who we are; how are we portrayed by others; and how this effects our relationships are all explored.

Cost is $20.00 per person (includes refreshments and lunch).

If these are questions that you are asking yourself, please join MENTOR for a two-part webinar series on the Third Standard, Training from the Elements of Effective Practice for Mentoring™, Third Edition (EEPM). This two part webinar will guide participants on the new standards and provide background on the research that was used as the basis for the benchmarks.
