Ohio State is in the process of revising websites and program materials to accurately reflect compliance with the law. While this work occurs, language referencing protected class status or other activities prohibited by Ohio Senate Bill 1 may still appear in some places. However, all programs and activities are being administered in compliance with federal and state law.

Diversity Mediators

Diversity mediators are classroom teachers, educational professionals, or individuals who would simply like to make a difference in their communities or organizations.  They can be of any ethnicity, religion or background, and needn't be from the region. Ourcommunication rules apply to outreach work online, in person and in schools. 

Diversity mediator certification carries the same requirements as Cultural Consultants, plus 2 hours of accompanied community outrreach and 8 hours of academic presentation on a Middle East-related topic of your choosing.  After each session provide a one-page reflection with a descriptive summary of the event and its academic content. These will be followed by a test of your knowledge.
