School scores major business hit with diversity, equity and inclusion program

The University of South Florida's Muma College of Business has held lots of courses, classes and seminars for the business community, but few have likely resonated as much as its current one: Diversity, Equity and Inclusion in the Workplace.

The free virtual online certificate program, which started in March and runs through May 5, had 110,000 registrants. The list, according to a statement from USF, includes corporate executives, small business owners and educational leaders. It was created in partnership with the Tampa Bay Lightning and Clearwater-based tech giant Jabil to provide business and community leaders tools to increase employee diversity and create a sustainable business model that embraces equity and inclusion.
