DEI Consulting for Colleges
and Universities
Since 2006, we have worked with over 75% of colleges and universities nationwide. Below is a listing of the services we explore when working directly with your institution.
Phase 1: Strategic Overview
We use the following as a starting point:
Developing Your DEI Office Infrastructure
Recruitment and Outreach (Faculty/Staff/Students/Administrators)
Diversity Marketing and Brand Management
Institutional/Organizational Partnerships
On-Campus Trainings and Modules
Phase 2: Assessment
Focus Groups
Inclusion Assessment Meetings are aimed at producing effective dialogue on diversity, inclusion and equity on
campus between students, faculty/staff and administrators.
After the meetings, we will produce an extensive proposal detailing the avenues of discussion with the various
groups. We develop a detailed assessment on the strengths of the campus environment and how it can improve in areas which could inhibit institutional effectiveness.
The evaluation will provide immediate and long- term "strike points" which could provide a landscape for open communication between campus entities.
Phase 3: Dialogue
On-Campus Trainings
The Academic Network, Inc. will correspond via email, phone and teleconference (Skype/Zoom) over the consulting term. Dr. Shropshire will also visit the campus periodically to conduct meetings, workshops, focus groups or strategy meetings. Visits are for a 2-day period and divided into morning and afternoon sessions.
