We plan to offer the CDSP course again in January 2020. Dates, times, and details will be released soon. If you or your team are interested in being notified when the next class is available, please let us know using the form below!
With the fast-growing demand for diversity Sourcing in 2020, we are now offering a complete Diversity Sourcing Program. This new program consists of a four-day intensive training course, capped by our brand new Certified Diversity Sourcing Professional (CDSP) certification exam.
The four training webinars will provide instruction on six core Sourcing skill areas covered in our original Certified People Sourcing Professional exam, with a specific focus on applying those skills to the challenges of diversity Sourcing. You will learn the key techniques and strategies to be proficient in all areas of Sourcing, as well as the best ways to apply these toward reaching your diversity Sourcing goal.
For each day of the training, we will record the class and the recordings and slides available. Even if you cannot attend the daily sessions live, you can still get the full benefit of the training from reviewing these materials.
Day 1 - Introduction to Diversity & Sourcing Essentials
Join us on Tuesday, November 10th (8AM to 9AM Pacific) for the program's first day. You will learn what Sourcing is all about (including the key principle of effective searching), and the part Sourcing plays in attaining your diversity goals. We will also be introducing the core skill areas of Exploratory Research, Google Search, X-Ray Searching, LinkedIn Search, Social Sourcing, and Cross-Referencing Information, as well as demonstrating the ways these skills apply to diversity Sourcing.
Day 2 - A Deeper Look at Diversity Search Strategies
Return to class on Wednesday, November 11th (8AM to 9AM Pacific). Building on the foundations laid on Day 1, our focus in this session will be to apply core Sourcing skills to a range of intermediate to advanced diversity search applications. We will demonstrate specific search strings, strategies, sites, and tools for each of several common target diversity candidate types (including women, under-represented racial and ethnic minorities, veterans, LGBTQ, and people with disabilities).
Day 3 - Homework Review, Demonstrations, and Q&A
Join us on Thursday, November 12th (8AM to 9AM Pacific) for a live practice session. On Day 3, we will review homework assigned on Day 2, and an instructor will demonstrate example searches requested by attendees in real-time. This is your best opportunity to get any in-depth questions answered live by the instructors.
Class Outcomes: You will learn the six core skills for effective Sourcing, and how to apply those skills expertly to overcome diversity search challenges. On successful completion of the Exam, you will also become a Certified Diversity Sourcing Professional (CDSP).
Who Will Benefit: Recruiters, Sourcers, and Managers who are passionate about workplace diversity. The course is suitable for recruiters or sourcers at any level.
Included: Three hours of live instructor-led training, recordings of the live webinars, all slides and presentation materials used in the webinars, sample CDSP Exam questions, as well as additional supplemental diversity Sourcing resources.
30 Days Support: Beyond the classes, beyond the test, we will provide unlimited support to your learning efforts both during the program and for 30 days more. Get answers to your questions, additional examples, and suggestions for implementing what you learn!
