Chief Diversity Officer Fellows Program

CDOFP alumni may provide additional support. The CDOFP is highly selective and collaborative with NADOHE member colleges and universities. NADOHE is investing in the current and future careers of new and early-career CDOs working in higher education and requires a yearlong commitment on the part of the Fellow and Mentor.
