Cleveland State University will implement a NSF ADVANCE Adaptation project to create comprehensive chair training focusing on: 1) improving faculty work-nonwork balance through practices such as Family-Supportive Supervisor Behaviors; 2) improving departmental culture for work-nonwork balance by addressing key assumptions and language surrounding work; and 3) improving advocacy for women faculty by addressing implicit bias, providing stronger letters of recommendation, and encouraging faculty to promote themselves more strongly. The ADVANCE project will complement many other on-going efforts at CSU to enhance diversity, equity, and inclusion within the STEM faculty including participation in past ADVANCE partnership project with Case Western Reserve and participation with the INCLUDES ASPIRE center.The CSU Adaptation project draws on evidence-based practices both outside and inside academia, including previous ADVANCE awardees. Specifically, the project draws from empirically supported work of previous ADVANCE projects (University of Washington) and research on non-academic organizations (the Work, Family, and Health Network). These strategies will be adapted to be effective at CSU as well as include focuses on issues of intersectionality such as national origin and age. The project has the potential to show how these techniques may need to be adjusted depending on the context, national origin, age, or other characteristics.The NSF ADVANCE program is designed to foster gender equity through a focus on the identification and elimination of organizational barriers that impede the full participation and advancement of diverse faculty in academic institutions. Organizational barriers that inhibit equity may exist in policies, processes, practices, and the organizational culture and climate. ADVANCE "Adaptation" awards provide support for the adaptation and adoption of evidence-based strategies to academic, non-profit institution of higher education as well as non-academic, non-profit organizations.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

克利夫兰州立大学将实施一个NSF ADVANCE适应项目，以创建全面的主席培训，重点是：1）通过家庭支持主管行为等做法改善教师工作与非工作的平衡; 2）通过解决关键假设和语言环境工作，改善部门文化的工作与非工作平衡; 3）通过消除隐性偏见，提供更有力的推荐信，鼓励教师更有力地宣传自己，改善对女教师的宣传。ADVANCE项目将补充CSU正在进行的许多其他努力，以提高STEM教师的多样性，公平性和包容性，包括参与过去与凯斯西储的ADVANCE合作项目，并参与INCLUDES ASPIRE中心。CSU适应项目借鉴了学术界内外的循证实践，包括以前的ADVANCE获奖者。具体来说，该项目借鉴了以往先进项目（华盛顿大学）和非学术组织（工作，家庭和健康网络）的研究经验支持的工作。 将对这些战略进行调整，使其在科罗拉多州立大学发挥作用，并将重点放在民族血统和年龄等交叉问题上。 该项目有可能显示这些技术可能需要根据背景，民族血统，年龄或其他特点进行调整。NSF ADVANCE计划旨在通过重点识别和消除阻碍学术机构中不同教师充分参与和发展的组织障碍来促进性别平等。 阻碍公平的组织障碍可能存在于政策、流程、做法以及组织文化和氛围中。 ADVANCE“适应”奖为学术、非营利高等教育机构以及非学术、非营利组织提供基于证据的战略适应和采用支持。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
