A brief description of the cultural competence trainings and activities:

Ethnic and Intercultural Services- Intercultural Affairs:
The Office of Ethnic and Intercultural Services seeks to enhance student learning and personal development by fostering greater awareness and appreciation for diverse cultures and cultivate an intercultural community based on respect and understanding. In this way, Intercultural Affairs has created an Intercultural Competency Certificate Program in order to assure that students at LMU develop into leaders for positive social transformation.
This intensive course of study prepares students for life in an increasing diverse society. Students are instructed in the areas of: conflict management, mediation, and small and large group facilitation. Additionally, students are challenged to identify their own biases and take personal responsibility for them. This program is designed for students who are interested in developing their human relations skills or those who would like to broaden their cultural understanding. Students who complete all requirements for the courses will earn the Intercultural Competency Certificate and a notation will be stamped on their transcript.
