Overview of CUPA-HR's DEI Maturity Index and New Research Center
In this session, members of the CUPA-HR research team will provide updates on two of our most important resources that bring you the latest in workforce data and help you take action on your most pressing issues. First, we’ll give you an overview of our new Research Center, which contains annual trend data, HR benchmarking statistics, exclusive content for members and the latest research publications. Then we’ll provide a description of our revised DEI Maturity Index, which measures progress on diversity, equity and inclusion at the system level. Finally, we’ll discuss the challenges with DEI at your institution and how you can move from talk to action.
Important pre-ALP action: To prepare for our DEI discussion, complete the DEI Maturity Index before ALP, and bring a copy of your results with you. (Results will be shared verbally only, and at your discretion.)

Corporate Partner Panel
CUPA-HR’s corporate partners bring unique perspectives to the table. Our eight ALP sponsors are not only a part of our higher ed HR ecosystem, but often enjoy a higher vantage point due to their work and interaction with multiple institutions. Further, these organizations are facing many of the same challenges as the clients they advise. Hear our partners’ approaches to many of the challenges with talent management and retention that higher education faces now and how each organization is charting a course ahead.
