Expense Example Narrative [Text Block] oef_ExpenseExampleNarrativeTextBlock
This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Portfolio’s Institutional Shares with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Portfolio for the time periods indicated and then hold or redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Portfolio’s operating expenses remain the same, taking into account the fee waiver in the first year of each period. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:
Portfolio Turnover [Heading] oef_PortfolioTurnoverHeading Portfolio Turnover
Portfolio Turnover [Text Block] oef_PortfolioTurnoverTextBlock
The Portfolio pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Portfolio shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual portfolio operating expenses or in the Example, affect the Portfolio’s performance. The Portfolio may actively trade portfolio securities to achieve its principal investment strategies. During the most recent fiscal year, the Portfolio’s portfolio turnover rate was 80% of the average value of its portfolio.
Portfolio Turnover, Rate oef_PortfolioTurnoverRate 80.00%
Strategy [Heading] oef_StrategyHeading Principal Investment Strategies
Strategy Narrative [Text Block] oef_StrategyNarrativeTextBlock
Under normal market circumstances, the Portfolio invests at least 80% of the value of its net assets (including borrowings for investment purposes) in equity securities, such as common stocks and preferred stocks, of U.S. small and medium (“SMID”) cap companies that the Advisor believes are undervalued. SMID cap companies include companies with the market capitalizations, at the time of purchase, that are within the market capitalization range of the smallest stock in the Russell 2500 Index to the largest stock in the Russell Midcap Index. That capitalization range was $7.8 million to $279.5 billion as of April 30, 2025.
The Advisor uses a combination of quantitative and fundamental research to select securities. The Advisor uses a quantitative proprietary multi-factor computer model which identifies a list of attractive securities having revenue and earnings growth potential with reasonable valuations, then applies fundamental research to select which securities to buy and sell for this Portfolio. The Advisor considers material environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria in the context of long-term investor decision making.
Bar Chart and Performance Table [Heading] oef_BarChartAndPerformanceTableHeading Performance Information
Performance Narrative [Text Block] oef_PerformanceNarrativeTextBlock
The bar chart and table below provide some indication of the risks of investing in the Portfolio. The bar chart shows how the performance of the Portfolio has varied from year to year. The table shows how average annual total returns for one year, five years and since inception compare to those of selected market indices. The Portfolio’s past performance, before and after taxes, does not necessarily indicate how it will perform in the future. Performance reflects expense reimbursements and/or fee waivers in effect. If such expense reimbursements or fee waivers were not in place, the Portfolio’s performance would be reduced. Updated performance information is available by visiting www.glenmedeim.com or by calling 1-800-442-8299.
Effective September 2, 2025, the Portfolio underwent a change to its investment objective and principal investment strategy (the “Repositioning”). In connection with the Repositioning, the Portfolio will be repositioned to invest in undervalued equity securities, such as common stocks and preferred stocks, of U.S. SMID cap companies.
As of the date of this Prospectus, the Portfolio had not yet offered Institutional Shares to investors. Accordingly, the performance of the Portfolio shown prior to September 2, 2025 reflects the Advisor Shares’ prior principal investment strategy and objective. The Portfolio’s performance would have differed if the Portfolio’s current principal investment strategy and objective had been in place. Institutional Shares and Advisor Shares of the Portfolio should have returns that are substantially the same because they represent investments in the same portfolio of securities and differ only to the extent that they have different expenses.

The bar chart shows how the performance of the Portfolio has varied from year to year. The table shows how average annual total returns for one year, five years and since inception compare to those of selected market indices.
Performance Additional Market Index [Text] oef_PerformanceAdditionalMarketIndex Effective September 2, 2025, due to the Repositioning, the Portfolio’s primary broad-based index changed from the Russell 1000 Index to the Russell 3000 Index. Effective September 2, 2025, due to the Repositioning, the Portfolio’s performance measurement index changed from the Morningstar Large Cap Value Average to the Russell 2500 Index. The Russell 2500 Index is provided so that investors may compare the performance of the Portfolio with an index composed of securities similar to those held by the Portfolio.

Risk [Text Block] oef_RiskTextBlock
Market Risk: Stocks may decline over short or even extended periods of time. Equity markets tend to be cyclical: there are times when stock prices generally increase, and other times when they generally decrease. In addition, the Portfolio is subject to the additional risk that the particular types of stocks held by the Portfolio will underperform other types of securities. Market risks, including political, regulatory, market, economic and social developments, and developments that impact specific economic sectors, industries or segments of the market, can affect the value of the Portfolio’s investments. Natural disasters, public health emergencies (including pandemics and epidemics such as COVID-19), war, military conflict, terrorism and other global unforeseeable events may lead to instability in world economies and markets, may lead to market volatility, and may have adverse long-term effects. The Portfolio cannot predict the effects of such unforeseeable events in the future on the economy, the markets or the Portfolio’s investments.

Risk [Text Block] oef_RiskTextBlock
Value Style Risk: Although the Portfolio invests in stocks the Advisor believes to be undervalued, there is no guarantee that the prices of these stocks will not move even lower. In addition, the value investment style can shift into and out of favor with investors, depending on market and economic conditions. As a result, the Portfolio may at times outperform or underperform other funds that invest more broadly or employ a different investment style.
Women in Leadership U.S. Equity Portfolio | Equity Portfolios - Institutional Classes | Small Cap Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items] oef_ProspectusLineItems  
Risk [Text Block] oef_RiskTextBlock
Small Cap Risk: The Portfolio is subject to the risk that the stocks of smaller and newer issuers can be more volatile and more speculative than the stocks of larger issuers. Smaller companies tend to have limited resources, product lines and market share. As a result, their share prices tend to fluctuate more than those of larger companies. Their shares may also trade less frequently and in limited volume, making them potentially less liquid. The price of small company stocks might fall regardless of trends in the broader market.

Risk [Text Block] oef_RiskTextBlock
Mid Cap Risk: The portfolio is subject to the risk that the stocks of mid cap companies can be more volatile and riskier than the stocks of larger issuers. Mid cap companies tend to have more limited resources, product lines and market share than larger more established businesses. As a result, their share prices tend to fluctuate more than those of larger companies. Their shares may also trade less frequently and in limited volume, making them potentially less liquid. The price of mid cap company stocks might fall regardless of trends in the broader market.

Risk [Text Block] oef_RiskTextBlock
Frequent Trading Risk: A high rate of portfolio turnover involves correspondingly high transaction costs, which may adversely affect the Portfolio’s performance over time. In addition, in connection with the Fund’s reposition on
September 2, 2025, shareholders should be aware that the Portfolio will experience a higher-than-normal portfolio turnover rate. High portfolio turnover may also result in the realization of short-term capital gains. Distributions derived from such gains will be treated as ordinary income for Federal income tax purposes.
