SUNY Cortland’s Career Services Office received the SUNY Career Development Organization (SUNYCDO) Office Award for Excellence in Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Initiatives at the annual SUNYCDO Conference on June 15 in Albany, N.Y.  

This award recognizes one SUNY campus for moving the field of career development forward with regard to increased diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging (DEIB). Through the efforts of several staff members during the past academic year, SUNY Cortland Career Services promoted individual and group student success through identity-focused programming on campus. Career Services supports the career needs of all students and works to enhance career prospects for students from underrepresented groups. Additionally, Career Services staff members serve on committees on campus including the Anti-Racism Task Force and Sexual Orientation, Gender Identity and Expression (SOGIE). Professionals from SUNY Cortland led the SUNYCDO DEI Committee, which offered professional development for career professionals across New York state.
