Join PIM’s Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DE&I) Accreditation Program
Enrollment Open November 1-30, 2022 | Learn More Click Here
Is your goal to have a more diverse, equitable and inclusive organization? Is your organization already working on Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DE&I) initiatives and looking for more to do? Are you not sure how to start your DE&I journey? Printing Industry Midwest (PIM) is here to help you accomplish all of that and more!
PIM’s Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DE&I) Accreditation Program is designed to create foundational changes in the recruiting, hiring, and training practices of our industry. This program has metrics and a process for accreditation that will help your organization continue to uphold and enforce a more diverse and inclusive environment.
The Areas of Accreditation is the guide to help achieve stars in this program. The goal of this program is not to write a DE&I program for you, but to provide you direction and a launching pad to create your own DE&I story.
ENROLLMENT:
Now (November 1st) until November 30th your organization can enroll in this program. What does enrolling in this program mean? It means signing a document saying your organization is committed to joining PIM’s DE&I Program and will uphold the guidelines & metrics for accreditation. Once that is signed and turned in, that is it (for now)!
ONBOARDING:
Towards the end of January 2023, Kristin Pilling-Davis & Sadie Johnson will reach out to schedule a 30-minute virtual onboarding meeting with your organization. During this meeting we will get you set up with the program metrics and our DE&I resources.
