Employee Resource Groups

Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) are communities that enhance the U of A employee experience through engagement, development and collaboration.

Our eight resource groups host critical conversations and cultural events that create opportunities to learn, while promoting the belonging of all employees across campus. They also offer mentoring opportunities for students and form an important bridge with similar organizations across northwest Arkansas.
