Programs Overview
You
are about to get a taste of the unique and successful diversity
training strategies of a master trainer. Dr. Billy Vaughn is a professor,
cultural diversity tool developer, and consultant since 1984.
With
national recognition, a successful consulting practice, and a doctorate
degree in cultural psychology, he is sought after by organizations
for training and trainers to serve as their personal coach.
You
may not know it, but few resources exist for learning how to be
a diversity trainer. A few weekend and weeklong courses exist, but
the training is often put together haphazardly, provided by people
with poor training, and the training often requires travel and tuition
costs.
You
may acquire some knowledge from the the training, but few trainers
give you an opportunity to practice skills under the instructor's
expert guidance. You are on your own once you leave the training.
In fact, many diversity trainers will not tell you their marketing
secrets for fear that you may end up competing with them.
Very
few training programs offer you information about how to market
yourself. The competition is stiff. Those who get the big jobs in
companies, such as Texaco, Denny's, and Home Depot, generally have
connections or a presence in the marketplace. Few trainers have
either high level contacts or marketing skills. The ideal training
will provide marketing skills that build connections and promote
presence while taking your unique style into consideration.
I
am sure you are wondering why Billy Vaughn will reveal his secrets
of being a successful trainer, if others are reluctant to do it.
Well, frankly, it is because he knows that there is plenty of work
for everyone in the diversity training profession AND he wants to
make certain that those doing the training have the expertise.
You
see Billy believes that most diversity trainers are poorly trained
and do poor training as a result. The harm they cause gives the
profession a bad reputation and make the experts' work harder. Clients
deserve trainers who will make their experience rewarding.
Consider
the following excerpt from an email sent to DTUI by a web surfer
in response to reading the mission statement on the DTUI homepage:
"Personally
I believe that the mission should be unity not diversity. I have
close friends that are of different gender and ethnic backgrounds
and I don't look at them as different. I have been to diversity
training 4 times with 3 companies. I would like to think that
after you have been once you can be a certified attendee and have
a certificate. I have spent a lot of time in these classes and
I don't feel I need to go again. The last one I was in was instructed
by a person whose diversity identification made them attack Christians.
They openly put down others that didn't hold their beliefs. You
could literally see the group become mean and attack. That is
why I think in business we need to focus on the product and customer
and knock off the social engineering. It seems the people that
teach tolerance are themselves intolerant. Just a thought."
The
more rewarding diversity training is to those who use and need it,
the more they will learn from the experience and refer the services
to others. Since professionals often rely on each other for referrals,
the professional diversity trainer will benefit from good press.
The better the press, the more work,. . . the better the pay,. .
. .the more satisfying the work is for everyone involved.
Whether
you desire to become a diversity trainer, you are an experienced
trainer, or you want to be a diversity resource person in your organization,
you need the information our site provides.
The
DTUI training experience basically covers three aspects of diversity
training: awareness, knowledge, and skills. These results in everything
from state of the art diversity training tools, developing workshops
with a personal touch, managing group dynamics, consulting to management,
to pricing your services.
It
doesn't matter if you have never conducted a who will make their
experience training, you need more experience, or you are a seasoned
trainer, the information here is more than you can imagine getting.
You'll
save time and money, avoid the mistakes most trainers have made,
learn to manage what turns into disastrous group dynamics for most,
and learn secrets many wish they knew. Here are a few things covered
that will put confidence in your heart, blossom your business, and
put money in your pocket soon.
SECRETS
OF BECOMING A SUCCESSFUL DIVERSITY TRAINER
by Billy Vaughn, DTUI President
It
is estimated that the majority of diversity trainers do not receive
compensation at their deserved rate. I see it this way. Most trainers
do not have adequate training. It is hard to make a living if you
do not know what is needed to look like a professional. Your profit
depends on your expertise.
Trained
organizational development specialists receive top dollar for their
services. Diversity training is a special area of organizational
development. This means diversity trainers should receive as much
as $5000 to $7500 per day, $1500 to $4500 per half day, or $125-$180
per hour. Anyone making less than these prices is underpaid. Here
is a sample of the secrets you'll learn by training with us at DTUI:
What
you need to do to sell your diversity ideas
Avoiding
the pitfalls of diversity training
How
to identify training needs and objectives
How
to identify training strategies and activities
How
to market your consulting or training practice
How
to price your services
How
to make top dollar for your diversity expertise
Three
things you must know to make a living as a diversity trainer
Knowing
what diversity training jobs to turn down
Discover
how to decide which diversity tools to use given the situation
The
hidden truth about why diversity trainers are underpaid.
INCREASE
YOUR INCOME ABOVE OTHER DIVERSITY TRAINERS BY 67%
After
you are done with our training program, your diversity training
expertise and marketing skills will net you more money than most
competitors only dream about. Here is a sample of the secrets you
learn:
How
much to charge for different training and consulting.
Whether
to charge hourly, daily, by the half day, or otherwise.
How
to provide value-added service at little cost to you
How
to successfully bid a job even though you charge more
How
to maintain a long-lasting working relationship with a client
YOU
CAN SAVE THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS WHILE BECOMING
A HIGH-PRICED DIVERSITY TRAINER
Most
diversity trainers learned their trade by taking a course or two
here, a workshop there, and listening to audiotapes. Traveling to
conferences and workshops is expensive alone. Someone living in
Chicago may pay more than $400 to travel to a conference in Los
Angeles. Adding hotel costs, meals, ground transportation AND THE
COST OF THE TRAINING can make for an expensive education.
Tuition
can cost anywhere between $175 and $1700. Also consider the fact
that most conferences where relevant courses are offered are not
directly focusing on training diversity trainers. This means many,
if not most, of the seminars and workshops offered do not pertain
your training needs. The result is that you will travel to several
conferences and workshops over several years to accumulate what
you need to feel like an expert.
Some
weekend programs provide intensive and broad-based knowledge, but
do not offer the supervised practice to perfect the skills. Here
is a sample of the ease of learning at DTUI:
Each
course is about 4-6 weeks long
A
on-line manual for each course
You
will work alone and in small teams (at a distance) on homework problems
You
don't have to travel
You
complete all course work quickly
You
can begin supervised diversity training almost right away
You
can receive clients through the DTUI referral service (free to trainees)
Much
more is offered that is described below. What you have just read
is only a small sample of the exciting information you will get
when you join Diversity Training U. You need the kind of straightforward
expert knowledge and skills the program offers.
If
you truly want to put thousands of dollars directly into your pocket
every year, as fast as possible, then the information we offer is
CRUCIAL. The most exciting part is that you can get all this information
at no risk to you (This is explained later).
If
you are serious about diversity training, you cannot afford to miss
out on DTUI's training program.
Here
are some of the things you get:
- Classes
via an on-line, web-based site. You can enter the classroom
from wherever you are (Home, office, mobilephone, travel, etc.).
All you need is access to the web.
- You Become
a Diversity Trainer Right Away. We believe that the best way
to learn is on the job. DTUI trainees receive coaching to assist
them in targeting and securing diversity training opportunities
as quickly as possible. This is also intended to help trainees
offset the cost of their education.
-
Most
diversity trainers underestimate their value. Diversity trainers
can request payments similar to organizational development specialists
which can range from $1000 to $5000 per day. OR YOU CAN BECOME
A VALUABLE DIVERSITY RESOURCE PERSON AT YOUR JOB. THIS CAN GET
YOU RAISES AND PROMOTIONS BEYOND YOUR PRESENT CAPABILITIES.
Let
us coach you on how to get similar rates. We normally charge
a fee for this service to diversity trainers, but YOU RECEIVE
IT FOR FREE as a trainee.
Trainees
in close proximity to locations where DTUI is contracted have
an opportunity to receive paid experience for their assistance.
Others are referred through contacts we receive through the
DTUI trainer referral service which you are included FREE with
your tuition. This shows DTUI's commitment to getting work for
its trainees.
-
Free
Diversity Training Referral Listing. Your name and diversity
training information will appear in the DTUI Diversity Training
Referral Listing. This is a free service to those seeking diversity
training experts. It is $250.00 a year value.
-
Marketing
skills. Can you imagine having excellent training skills, but
lose out to less worthy competitors with better marketing packages?
Most diversity trainer programs fall short of providing you
with marketing knowledge and skills. We believe marketing is
one of the most important parts of the training. DTUI graduates
are well-rounded. This includes an ability to market oneself.
-
Join
a Diversity Trainer Community. Networking is one of the best
ways to get opportunities. DTUI trainees are a community of
learners dedicated to competent diversity training assisting
each other. Members combine their expertise and resources to
offer clients top quality training and consulting. Joining our
community is the key to success.
You
get much, much, more!

via the web-based Blackboard Classroom site. All you need is
a computer, printer, email account, and access to the world
wide web.
- Adult-learner
format. Classes range from 4-6 weeks in duration, so you can
complete courses quickly which means you earn your credentials
quickly.
- You have
7/24 access to the web-based classroom so you can attend anytime
it suits you, enter your assignment information, and get feedback
from classmates at your convenience.
- Courses
are small. We will keep each course to 10 people or fewer whenever
possible, but no more than 12.

It offers strategies for overcoming intercultural communication
challenges.

and how to offer incentives.
Performance

The
DTC program is designed for the individual who seeks to learn
the basics of diversity training in order to become a trainer or
consultant. This program offers nine (9) courses needed to understand
and apply the basics of diversity training. At the end of the courses,
the individual receives a certificate of completion.
The following courses apply:

trainer looking to build a practice, this course will give you insights
into the barriers of being paid what you are worth, the challenges

The
Master's in Culture and Organizational Behavior (COB) program
is for those individuals serious about becoming a diversity trainer.
This person wants a credential that specifies expertise in diversity
training and consulting.
In
addition to the nine courses taken in the DTC program, the COB program
requires 6 more. In addition, the individual needs to develop a
unique instructional technology, such as a workshop, under supervision
of two DTUI faculty members. Once, the courses are completed and
the technology is complete, the person must satisfactorily complete
3 diversity trainings (under DTUI faculty supervision). At this
point, all requirements are satisfied and the individual receives
a diploma indicating that s/he is a certified DTUI trained diversity
expert.
The
additional courses include:
Training Systems Design (6 weeks)
Training Systems Development (6 weeks)
Diversity Consulting (5 weeks)
Diversity Coaching (5 weeks)
Developing a Practice (4 weeks)
Diversity Project (9 weeks)
The
COB program is for the serious diversity trainer who wants to take
advantage of a lucrative market. This program offers you (1) the
most advanced knowledge and skills, (2) personal diversity coaching,
and (3) extensive marketing support. Participants receive a certification
diploma upon program completion.
Both
programs get students involved in training and consulting as quick
as possible. This way COB program trainees learn new knowledge and
skills while practicing them under expert guidance. COB trainees
also learn how to market themselves and get top dollar for their
work.
All
trainees receive the Daily Diversity Lessons, the DTUI Newsletter,
and two ½ hour telephone sessions with a faculty person to discuss
either specific or general diversity questions or challenges. Just
think. Most on-line programs are very costly.
Consider
a management degree from University of Phoenix. This will cost you
$1025.00 per course. You need several courses, depending on the
particular degree. You can easily spend $9-10 thousand dollars to
get the degree. DTUI's is the only on-line diversity training program.
The
only other way you can learn about diversity and inclusion is to
either attend workshops at various conferences or to complete a
program at one of a handful of institutes. Either way, the costs
is considerable. You will likely have to travel by air, pay for
hotel and meals, as well as the registration costs. All this and
you will not be given opportunities to apply your skills in your
real world situations under expert supervision. DTUI offers a cost-effective
solution to becoming a diversity expert.
You
can learn from your office, home, or while on the road. The web-based
classroom and interactive format affords you ample opportunities
to try out your skills in both the classroom and office, while receiving
feedback from both the professor and fellow students.
You get all of this for:
$600.00 per course OR save big by paying a lump sum.
HRSC program cost is $1995.00
DTC program is $3995.00
COB program is $7995.00
You can even make payments over time.

HUMAN
RELATIONS MASTERS DEGREE
Human Relations (HRS) is the study of relations among people get
along better. Some relevant areas of study one woud apply this knowledge
would include:
- conflict
resolution,
- diversity
and inclusion,
- race relations,
- peace and
unity,
- organizational
inclusion,
- team building,
- employee
rights,
- union negotiations,
- leadership,
- group dynamics,
and
- communications.
Human
relations developed out of a concern for understanding the relationship
between the U.S. economy and management practices. Today it focuses
primarily on the relationship between human diversity and productivity
from a management perspective. This is why the master's program
is ideal for DTUI.
Effective
human relations skills result in greater workplace productivity
and greater satisfaction among employees according to Marie Dalton
and colleagues who wrote a textbook on the subject. Human Relations(HRs)
is an area of expertise that is well-established. Perhaps the oldest
institution for HRs is the Institute for Human Relations at Yale
University.It was established in the 1930s. The Tavistock Institute
in England is another well-established center. Several state departments
in U.S. states also have HRs center--California and Maryland to
name a couple. Many communities have established HRs as well.
Diversity
training is a specific type of human relations training. The challenge
for the diversity specialist is to:
- understand
the gap between diversity-related beliefs and behaviors,
- possess
the tools needed to get the audience to expose it, and
- want to
do something about it.
Once
they want to do something about it, the proper knowledge and skills
are needed to work toward closing the gap. It is rare that a single
magic solution exists that can make you an instant expert. It is
a process....a lot of ideas, risk-taking, empathy for others, and
commitment which combine to make the greatest impact on others.
PROGRAM
OVERVIEW
The
remainder of this page is an overview of Admission Requirements
and Certification Requirements. Training is difficult work. Yet,
few trainers have the expertise needed to manage the resistance
to diversity training and emotional responses that are common in
their work.
One
result is that many potential clients believe that diversity training
does more harm than good. DTUI provides the knowledge, skills, and
personal growth needed to excel as a trainer. A rigorous set of
standards designate the Diversity Training University International
(DTUI) graduate to insure competency and high ethical standards.
DTUI
graduates' qualifications and abilities will stand out from other
professional trainers. WHO SHOULD TAKE THE TRAINING The training
is designed for either of the following:
- Those who
want to develop basic human relations skills.
- Those who
want to add to their skills
- Those seeking
a credential for job advancement
- Those who
are beginners
- Those who
have been assigned as a diversity resource person on the job
The
managers, EEO Officer, Diversity & Inclusion Resource Person,
and Human Resource person are examples of people who may fall into
this category. You can sign up for either:
- One course
($600.00)

Degree in Human Relations Program ($5995.00)**
