The Building Toward Belonging: Michigan Medicine Implicit Bias Training (LARA Compliant) serves as the foundation for a continuous curriculum to help us evolve into a more respectful and inclusive academic medical center. This mandatory training is our first step in developing a continuous curriculum to educate our community on why inclusion matters, identify key allyship behaviors that reduce the influence of implicit bias in decision-making, and integrate strategies for mitigating bias in our daily work.
To build a more compassionate and inclusive culture, Michigan Medicine’s Office for Health Equity and Inclusion has launched Building Toward Belonging: Implicit Bias Training (LARA compliant). We are excited to share this 1-hour, live course with healthcare workers employed outside of the University of Michigan.
