We take pride in being accessible to the NYU community. We hold sessions available to all community members throughout the year to accommodate a variety of schedules. While we will do our best to accommodate individual requests, we ask that the requesting party first direct their staff to our scheduled sessions whenever possible.
If this is not possible and an individualized session is required, please note that we ask the host to guarantee a minimum of 10 participants. We also ask that the host consolidate requested workshops to one session unless the requesting party has some special circumstance that would require otherwise.
Individuals in need of reasonable accommodations during the workshops are invited to contact the Office of Equal Opportunity at 212-998-2370 or equal.opportunity@nyu.edu.
Workshops are 1-2 hours, depending on the course. Instructors cover sensitive topics that have important implications for students, faculty, staff, and other members of the NYU community. It is important to ensure the community has an understanding of University policy and practice to understand their rights, responsibilities, and resources. We cannot accommodate requests for abbreviated workshops, as this would prevent us from sharing important content and answering participants’ questions.
Workshops typically take place between 9:00 am-5:00 pm EST, unless the requesting party is an international audience or has some special circumstance that would prevent participants from attending during regular business hours. While we will do our best to accommodate requests, we cannot guarantee availability. We ask that the requesting party first make an effort to schedule the workshop during regular business hours.
Instructors cover sensitive topics to ensure the community has an understanding of University policy and practice to understand their rights, responsibilities, and resources. Slide decks and handouts are presentation tools and are most effective with proper context. Discussion and questions are also a critical component of our workshops. As such, we do not provide slide decks and handouts without this context. For additional tools and resources relating to the University's equal opportunity and affirmative action policies, procedures, and programs, please visit nyu.edu/eo.
Handouts, slide decks, and course content change based on changes in the law and NYU policy. To ensure that community members receive the most updated information, we ask that workshop material not be reproduced or distributed without prior consent.
The group requesting an OEO workshop is responsible for making arrangements for venue, technology, and any logistics or costs associated.
We ask that any workshops and presentations be requested a minimum of 3 weeks in advance of the requested date to ensure availability and allow our presenters adequate time to prepare and deliver a high quality presentation.
Workshop content changes based on changes in the law and NYU policy. To ensure that community members receive the most current information, video and/or audio recordings are not permitted.
Presentations provide information about University policy and practice and are not to be construed as legal advice.
