Fleming students enjoying a break from class
Student Experience Diversity & Inclusion Services is …
- a safe space for students to receive education, support and referrals on a wide range of diversity issues
- a service that promotes diversity and human rights, and organizes events in collaboration with other departments and community partners
- a source of CCR-eligible training programs like Positive Space . Our programs can also be offered in the classroom and for on-campus groups, such as student councils, Fleming employees, and third party employers on campus. See the Training tab for more details on the programs we offer.
Diversity & Inclusion Services also supports other groups not covered by the Ontario Human Rights Code, such as First Generation students who are the first in their families to pursue a post-secondary education.
Our programs help students make connections and learn from one another, so reach out and let’s celebrate our differences together!
