Build confidence to improve equality, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) across your organisation. Our ‘Creating an inclusive organisation’ eLearning modules are for anyone working in social care who would like to learn more about EDI. The modoules explore the barriers to career progression faced by people from ethnic minority backgrounds.
The modules are primarily for people from ethnic minority backgrounds as they have been designed to support learners to deal with specific challenges they may face in the sector, as well as helping to build confidence, and to improve equality, diversity and inclusion within their organisation. However, the modules may also be of interest to anyone, at any level, who is interested in EDI and how to improve this within their organisation.
Programme content
These eLearning modules consist of two parts, designed to develop leadership skills and promote career progression. All topics covered in the modules form part of an action plan that can be used by the participant to improve their learning and understanding, and also can also be used to educate colleagues and improve EDI within their organisation.
Topics include:
- an overview of equality, diversity and inclusion
- discrimination
- promoting equality, diversity and inclusivity within your organisation
- leadership and management
- personal branding
- communication skills
- career barriers and career progression.
It should take around four hours to work through the two eLearning modules and you will receive a certificate once completed.
The modules are an introduction to our flagship Moving Up programme which is aimed at leaders or aspiring leaders from Black and Asian minority groups who want to develop themselves, and progress in their career at all levels, in all roles, in all types of organisations (for example in voluntary, third sector, private and community based organisations).
