The Hispanic Association of Colleges and Universities (HACU) has established a strategic partnership with DiversityInc
“We’re
pleased to partner with the organization that produces ‘The DiversityInc Top 50
Companies for Diversity,’” said HACU President and CEO Antonio R. Flores,
referring to an annual listing that recognizes corporate diversity. “HACU-member institutions are an excellent
source of diverse talent for employers, and DiversityInc is helping to call
attention to ways that companies can partner with HACU to tap into that
talent.”
In
October 2012, DiversityInc CEO Luke Visconti moderated a Town Hall at HACU’s
Annual Conference on the topic of “Corporate Diversity Meets the
Hispanic-Serving Institution (HSI).”
Visconti serves on the HACU Corporate and Philanthropic Council, and is
donating in-kind print and online advertising to promote the HACU National
Internship Program (HNIP).
“It is
fitting that two of the top ten companies on the 2012 ‘DiversityInc Top 50
Companies for Diversity’ – Sodexo and Deloitte – participate in the HACU
National Internship Program,” said Flores.
“Through this strategic partnership with DiversityInc, we anticipate
that more and more companies will utilize HNIP as a cost-effective way to
diversify their workforce.”
The 2013
‘DiversityInc Top 50 Companies for Diversity’ list will be announced at a
special event on April 23-24, 2013, at two of New York City’s great historic
landmarks, Cipriani Wall Street and the Museum of American Finance. Thanks to the strategic partnership, HACU
members who would like to develop diversity-management expertise and network
with corporate executives can receive a 15 percent discount on registration. To reserve a limited-availability spot, click here and enter the promo code HACU50.
