An internship or part-time job in the human resources department of a company is a good way to start learning about workplace diversity and inclusion. Search for opportunities in the career sections of the companies that most interest you. School career services offices can also help with finding employment and internship openings. An informational interview with a workplace diversity expert will give you insights into the daily responsibilities, education and experience requirements, and other topics. Prepare a list of questions before the interview.
Another good way to meet people in the diversity and inclusion field is by attending professional association events and classes. Most associations offer students discounted rates on their programs as well as on memberships. Find events on Web sites such as https://www.shrm.org/Events, https://www.ipma-hr.org/events, and https://www.societyfordiversity.org.
