RECENT TESTIMONIALS:
This was the best workshop/webinar that I've participated in since I became an administrator 7 years ago. I have already spoken with our Head of School to implement many of the strategies that were shared. Please continue to do the good work. Jean-Paul Ouellette, Dean of Academics and Faculty b- Drew School
Working with you was inspiring and compelling! That you were able to capture Marlborough's community of leaders for 3 hours 2 days before spring break is a significant testament to the value of what you shared with us! We are a tough crowd and you challenged us taught us much and gave us practical tools that we can use to up our diversity hiring game! Jennifer Ciccarelli, Head of School - Marlborough School
The NEMNET webinar is one of the most worthwhile learning events of its kind. Highly recommend it to others! Bethany Dickerson Wynder, Director of Diversity Equity and Inclusion Initiatives - St. Paul's School
Warren and his team at NEMNET have crafted such an intentional and useful cultural competency training that covers so many aspects of recruiting hiring and retaining candidates of color. Each of our teachers and staff who regularly serve on hiring committees left the session feeling more equipped with the tools they need to review resumes interview candidates and think about school culture in a new way. Our hiring committee valued their time in this session and we aim to offer this professional development to our entire faculty moving forward. Aletha Haynes, Primary Division Head (Grades K-2) - The School at Columbia
It's worth noting that our department chairs one after the other let us know that this was the best PD session they have ever had. And if you remember the long tenures of people in the room that's an extraordinary compliment! Thank you for sharing your expertise and for pushing us. I know everyone is eager for follow-up work with you. Kate M. A. Caspar, Associate Head of School - Winsor School
