Presented by the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR-MN).  CAIR Minnesota - CAIR Minnesota (cairmn.com)

This proactive diversity training bridges the gap of misunderstanding and provides resources to educate REALTORS®, community leaders and others. 

1. The presentation will open with a brief introduction on how to effectively work with Muslim clients by bringing awareness to and eliminating potential bias. This session will also include an interactive polling exercise. Participants will answer questions to learn about Muslim culture while also learning about unconscious bias. 
2. The second segment highlights Muslim demographics worldwide, in the United States and in Minnesota. This session includes an in-depth explanation of the religion and cultural norms, including keywords, holidays, and customs held in Muslim culture. The training concludes with a discussion on how Muslims practice their beliefs, emphasizing the continuum of diversity of practice within the religion. 
3. The third part of this presentation will include how to provide religious accommodation in the workplace.  (A workplace accommodation may be similar to accommodations requested when real estate professionals work with Muslim clients).

This presentation is hosted by SPAAR’s Committee for Diversity, Equity & Inclusion.  
All members of SPAAR are welcome to attend.  Registration requested.

Note: CAIR-MN’s presentation is not approved for continuing education credits.
