During the professional development day, mandatory for all those who work at USFQ, we include sustainability related trainings. In 2016 it was specific to understanding microaggressions, particularly related to gender equality. This was imparted by a Fullbright visiting scholar, Patricia Marshall, PhD. In 2017 it included understanding the health of rivers in the country and overall ecological health based on the research by Andrea Encalada, PhD.
A brief description of any external professional development and training opportunities in sustainability that are supported by the institution(e.g. through payment, reimbursement, or subsidy):
Every professor has a proposed budget to do trainings based on their professional needs. We have had professors take sustainability trainings such as B-Corps Multipliers (2016), and the Amani Institute Social Innovation Course (2017) for students and faculty. These trainings were financed by the University.
