LEARN COMMON TECHNIQUES
Large and small companies have over the years come up with standard practices that show that they support the LGBTQAI+ community. While we bring that to you in this course, we delve into the topic deeper by offering additional strategies, tips, and language you can use that shows true support rather than basic political correctness.
WHAT YOU WILL LEARN
You'll learn about allyship groups, how to run them, and how to set them up at your company. You'll learn how to use modern language that isn't offensive, but rather shows support. You'll learn to confidently define the LGBTQAI+ acronym.
You will also learn what to do if you overhear derogatory comments made by co-workers, and you'll learn about how to handle such situations ranging from confronting those individuals to reporting them to HR.
You will also learn about relevant US laws related to Diversity And Inclusion (DEI).
DISCLAIMER: The legal part of the course is based on US laws. But the general principles may be applied worldwide. Of course, different countries have very different approaches to some of the issues presented in this course, so please use your best discretion when applying it to your unique workplace.
