Human Resources - Introduction to Diversity and Inclusion
Venue: Ilkeston
Hours: 4.00
Cost (£): 350.00
Course Overview
Diversity and Inclusion (D&I) is everyone’s business: all organisations have a part to play in creating an environment where everyone can be at their best. But the concepts can often seem complex and difficult to put into practice; terminology can be confusing; and it can be hard to
tell what is acceptable to do or say. You may want to do the right thing but be frightened of getting it wrong.
If you would like to feel more confident in recognising and dealing
with D&I issues, this half-day introductory course gives you knowledge, tools and resources that you can apply practically in the workplace.
It is an interactive course, providing opportunities to practise in a
safe environment.
