You know that buzz when big things are on the horizon, and you can’t help but feel excited? That’s exactly how we’re feeling at Team JTC. We’ve got three major launches lined up for the Increase Diversity Academy in 2025, and each one is set to change the game in recruiting, retention, and career success.

Whether for hiring managers, recruiters, or job seekers, these tools are designed with our beloved community in mind. Ready to explore what’s coming? Let’s dive in.

(Accelerated) QIL: The Training Program That Delivers Fast Results

We know the struggle. Hiring managers are often tasked with increasing diversity, but the tools they need are often scarce. That’s why we’re making (Accelerated) Qualified Inclusive Leader training more accessible than ever by housing it within the Increase Diversity Academy—bringing this powerful program straight to the companies that need it most.

(Accelerated) QIL gives hiring managers the skills to remove bias and unlock real change in their hiring practices. The program is compact and efficient: 3 hours of learning spread out over 45 days, with short, engaging videos and downloadable resources like handouts and infographics to fit your schedule. You’ll learn how to rethink job qualifications, design inclusive interview processes, and build a talent pipeline that works for your team’s goals.

No more guesswork—just proven frameworks you can use right away. Curious about how (Accelerated) QIL can level up your team? Check out the details.

Inner Circle: Career Success for Job Seekers

For job seekers who’ve felt like they’re fighting an uphill battle, the Inner Circle coaching program is coming to the Increase Diversity Academy in 2025. Inner Circle isn’t a typical career coaching program—it’s an insider guide to navigating the biases baked into hiring systems that Team JTC is privy to.

Job seekers are going to experience straight talk on how to handle interviews where nobody looks or sounds like you, how to stop second-guessing yourself, and how to move up when you’ve been overlooked one too many times. Inner Circle digs into the real challenges that people face when they are ambitious but perceived as “different” —especially folks from underrepresented backgrounds—and gives you the tools to overcome them.

Through your Increase Diversity Academy membership, you will not only get access to the ever-growing library of content.

You will also become a member of a community with expert support and practical tools and resources.?
