Diversity, Sensitivity, and Inclusion Training: Promoting Anti-Discrimination and Equity in the Workplace

To successfully deliver on an organization’s mission and work collaboratively in a nonprofit workplace that is truly inclusive, we must be particularly mindful of and sensitive to the people around us. It’s critical to have the knowledge and awareness of global, racial, religious, gender, sexual orientation, cultural differences, local diversity, and individual sensitivities so that we can consistently recognize the values and contributions of every human being.

This important goal can only be achieved through a process of deep self-reflection that leads to personal awareness about the way we have been shaped to see both ourselves and others who are different from us.

This interactive and engaging course will educate you about the individual rights and responsibilities we all have when it comes to anti-discrimination, diversity, sensitivity, and inclusion in the workplace and will set the foundation for creating an inclusive, respectful work culture where every person can rise to their potential.
