Equality, Diversity, Inclusion & Belonging Training

Are your staff aware they could be made to pay large amounts of money because one of their staff was not treated with equality? Do they understand what equality and diversity mean?

Untrained supervisors and managers often do not realise what they are doing is wrong and that they and the company are liable to pay an unlimited amount in compensation. Training in equality and diversity can help to ensure equality takes place in the workplace and reduce the company’s liability.

Our equality, diversity, inclusion and belonging training course normally starts by getting participants to appreciate how they see situations through various ‘filters’ they have developed through their lifetime. This is a fun and challenging activity that enables them to see how we all see things differently and naturally develop prejudices. This helps participants to generate an open mind to the subjects that follow and seeing the need for change.

An interactive, pragmatic diversity and inclusion course will help participants understand the importance of equality and how apply it at work. We achieve this by using activities that help participants appreciate that everyone is different and to recognise, value and respect the differences. We then use case quizzes, case studies and a workbook to help participants understand the Equality Act and what it means to them and their company.

Our equality and diversity training is participative, practical and informative; presented in an outgoing, informal and relaxed style. We aim to stimulate participant interest and cater for a range of learning styles and behaviours.

All staff, some organisation run separate courses for supervisors and managers.

By the end of the equality, diversity, inclusion and belonging training course, delegates will be able to…

• appreciate the need to see how others see issues, which may be different from how we see them
• understand prejudices and discrimination
• appreciate the difference between diversity and equality
• understand the law on equality in the workplace
• carry out selection interviews without asking the ‘wrong’ questions
• identify different types and possible effects of harassment and discrimination
• deal effectively with bullying and harassment
• apply an equality approach to their job
• appreciate how a best practice approach to diversity can benefit the company.
