You'll likely need a teaching statement, and you may also need a diversity statement and/or service statement. In this informative workshop, you will learn what goes in each of these documents, how they should be formatted, and how to use them effectively in your job search. We will discuss the new and evolving requirements for the "service statement" (which can also be known by other names), as well as how best to approach more traditional statements on teaching and diversity. No registration required.
