Disrupting unconscious bias

Unconscious bias training makes us aware of the biases we all hold. Team members across our organization have participated in these workshops to create stronger, more balanced decision-making, and actionable strategies to build inclusion across our bank.

Putting people first

We want everyone to prosper at CIBC. When we hire and promote, we measure and take action to make sure we're being inclusive. We believe in helping you build your career from the day you're hired, and in supporting a healthy balance for all of our people.
