Although it had been aware of the concepts of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) for several years, the College team wanted to deepen its knowledge by initiating an internal DEI process. Since then, a committee has been set up to move the project forward, a concrete strategy to become a leader in this field has been put in place, and staff members have been trained.
