NCBI

National Coalition Building Institute workshops are offered at The University of Montana to give students, staff and faculty opportunities to explore issues of equity and diversity and learn effective ways to respond to prejudice and conflict.
 
The workshops are led by trainers with expertise in tackling divisive issues and building inclusive and welcoming programs.
 
With encouragement from UM’s Diversity Advisory Council and funding support from the President’s Office, the Office of the Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs and the Office of the Vice President of Student Affairs, the University Center has contracted with NCBI Missoula to serve as a campus training resource. Information about workshops offered by NCBI is online at http://www.ncbimissoula.org.
