Our Mission


At the Center for Equity and Inclusion, we believe that everyone has the power to transform the spaces we work and live in.


Each person has a unique entry point into understanding Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI), so we have created an intuitive digital platform that engages people in learning and reflection to help them commit to personal change.


The Center’s commitment to inclusive and accessible environments made us recipients of the 2023 Brandon Hall Group Excellence Awards.

The Digital Learning Platform

The Center’s Digital Learning platform offers an accessible, user-friendly interface for its DEI training online, making it easy for participants to navigate and engage with the material. 


The platform's flexibility allows learners to progress at their own pace, making it suitable for diverse schedules and ensuring that everyone, regardless of their time constraints, can fully participate in the training. This self-paced structure, coupled with the option to engage in virtual sessions facilitated by CEI staff, ensures a comprehensive and adaptable learning experience.


The Brandon Hall HCM Excellence Awards are a testament to the effectiveness and inclusivity of the CEI Digital Learning platform. Winning accolades for the Best Learning Program that Supports and Promotes DEI and Best Use of Section 508 Requirements for Training Platforms highlights the program's commitment to accessibility, diversity, equity, and inclusion. These awards validate the course's comprehensive design, which integrates accessibility features and caters to a wide range of learners. The recognition highlights the program's success in advancing an inclusive learning environment and its impact on promoting DEI within organizations.


Our Courses


The Reframing Racism course emphasizes interactive features such as experiential learning, guided questions, and reflections. These elements help deepen participants' understanding and foster meaningful engagement with the content. 


The course content of CEI's Reframing Racism training includes seven modules that provide a thorough exploration of foundational DEI principles. These modules cover topics such as building a common language around race, understanding the history of racism, and recognizing its various expressions. 


The training incorporates case studies and real-world examples to offer practical learning experiences. It equips participants with strategies for fostering an inclusive workplace culture. The structure encourages participants to engage deeply with the material and reflect on their personal journeys toward advancing racial equity.


The CEI Digital Learning platform offers substantial benefits for both organizations and individuals. For organizations, the Reframing Racism Training and other courses enhance workplace diversity and inclusion efforts by building a common language and understanding of racial equity. This creates a more inclusive and equitable workplace culture. 


For individuals, the training provides valuable professional development in DEI knowledge and skills, promoting personal growth through self-reflection and interactive learning. Participants gain a deeper understanding of racial equity frameworks and practical tools for cultivating a thriving culture within their organizations.


Once your organization completes the foundational Reframing Racism course, there are opportunities for continued learning through additional modules. 


We offer two shorter modules that dive deeper into previously introduced concepts: Racializing Agreements and Culture Building Role and Purpose of Feedback.


Organizations are Seeing the Results



Corporate and nonprofit organizations have utilized our DEI training online platform, with positive results in shaping their workplace culture.  A manager from the Washington County Department of Housing Services shares that,


 “Staff appreciated that the platform and course focused on self-reflection, offering individuals the opportunity to consider how the material and content related to their own experiences. The digital format ensured that staff also took the time to recognize their own reactions to the content and to exercise self-awareness and care in needed moments.” 


This organization also shared that this foundational learning offered them an entry point for teams to engage in continued conversations.

A unique aspect of our learning platform is the use of racial affinity and points for personal reflection. A user from Social Venture Partners Portland shared, 


“I really appreciated the BIPOC affinity group and reflection. The encouragement for embodiment practices and to check in with the body. I loved the lens of it being very cultural and addressing the historical systemic racism for multiple identities, I have not seen this in a lot of DEI trainings.”
