Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
The Amica Center for Career Education believes in diversity in its fullest extent and we strive to ensure that our staff, programs, services, events and office environment welcome, respect, and elevate all people.
We believe equity is an essential value and practice that must be demonstrated daily to our community members, so as to create and provide a just and fair career development and learning environment.
We are a community of colleagues who embrace inclusion and we aspire to promote the welfare, dignity, and opportunity of all within the Bryant University community and beyond.
The Amica Center affirms the rights of each individual and we support the prosperity of all identities and their intersections, as well as all the communities in which individuals thrive.
The Amica Center is committed to diversifying its student and professional staff and will leverage every opportunity to identify and recruit qualified diverse candidates to achieve an equitable representation in both student and professional staffing.
We understand we must engage in anti-racist endeavors to challenge ourselves and the status quo, so as to create a better community for all of us, to share and cherish, and to support the success of each other. Our team is dedicated to equity, inclusion, and belonging initiatives, and our full-time Intercultural Career Coach, Melanie Ok (mok@bryant.edu), is especially dedicated to assisting our students and designing programming to meet the specific needs of our diverse student population.
