The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) requires training for new federal investigators, and the Professional Development Institute (PDI) at Oklahoma City Community College (OCCC) will be offering the required 32-hour course this spring. EEOC investigators perform work involving the handling of inquiries and complaints of employment discrimination under the federal statutes enforced by the EEOC.
Participants of the course will learn EEO law basics and investigative techniques in an interactive setting. Topics will include an overview of the EEO process, the roles and responsibilities of an investigator, case studies, techniques for planning and conducting interviews, and investigative reports and summaries. Course instructor Regina Clear has over 18 years of experience as a contracted EEO investigator working with agencies such as the Department of Transportation, U.S. Postal Service, Homeland Security, and many more.
The course will take place Feb. 23 through Mar. 26 on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m., and Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the PDI located at 7124 S.
