Talent Development creates a culture that is open to learning, and fosters continuous growth through the sharing of ideas. We provide innovative solutions including the design and delivery of high-quality initiatives that engage, inform, and inspire individual employees and teams in support of CSU’s Principles of Community and land-grant mission.
NEW! We invite you to join the CSU TD Facebook group, another avenue for virtual connection and micro-learning for our staff and faculty. We will post research-based content that correlates to our curricula. Weigh in on periodic questions that will provide reflection, engagement, or respite, and generate uplifting conversations. Hope to see you there!
Please visit our Trending Resources page frequently, as trending topics and suggested articles, videos, and book resources will change and rotate.
The Office of Inclusive Excellence website was recently relaunched in March with a variety of new resources to continue learning and engaging on topics related to diversity, equity, and inclusion.

In addition to its traditional employee health resources, the Employee Assistance Program (EAP) has posted special COVID-19 resources, including a list of webinars sponsored by the state of Colorado. EAP COVID-19 Resource Page

Addressing the current climate of acts of racism and oppression, we feel a strong urgency to share the anti-racism resources from OEI, that embrace the key concepts of diversity, equity and inclusion. Talent Development believes in the power of educating oneself to make positive and lasting changes. We encourage you to explore the resources and commit to listen, to learn and engage in ways you may have not done before.
