Schools and media are moving through disruptive change. Attracting more human capital from under-represented categories is a proven way to inject innovation into an organization’s culture and practices and improve the odds for success. Innovation Through Inclusion (ITI) is the new banner for AEP’s initiative to help its member organizations better reflect and serve the diversity of schools.
See the ITI Leadership.
