Wake Forest University Logo

Located in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, Wake Forest University is a nationally ranked Collegiate University with 4500 undergraduate students and 400 faculty allowing for small classes averaging 20 students.  The University prides itself for preparing students for success in a challenging global environment:  over 50% of graduating seniors received credits abroad.  The University’s Diversity and Inclusion initiative is supported by the Provost and directed by the Assistant Provost for D&I.

How we helped

EDS assisted in the development of the University’s Strategic Plan for D&I, developed curriculum for staff Gate Keepers’ diversity training, and trained internal staff members to provide training in an ongoing program for the University.

“EDS immediately understood the University’s culture and developed effective relationships across the University community.  This allowed them to provide assistance in our strategic planning process and to design training that responded to our current culture while helping us develop new cultural behaviors to achieve our vision for the future.”

 Dr. Barbee Oakes, Assistant Provost, Diversity & Inclusion
