Training & Workshops

We offer free, customized training to the IUPUI community on global topics

We believe deeply in the importance of intercultural communication and the power of global learning. As IUPUI increasingly becomes a global campus, our community needs skills to collaborate across cultures and embrace differences.

We have expert faculty and staff that can offer training in the areas below.

In most cases, training is offered on demand to be specifically adapted to your needs and critical issues. Common topics include:
