What is DEI training and how can it help your business?
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) training encompasses many things but has the ultimate goal of helping workplaces become more inclusive, diverse, and equitable – particularly for marginalized or underrepresented employees and potential candidates. It is an actionable first step employers can make towards ensuring their business is a safe, welcoming, and encouraging place for all.
Training Centre around identifying and exploring the nuances that contribute to discrimination and exclusion within the workplace and how to actively work towards changing the circumstances that perpetuate them.
