Equality Training

Equality Training is a specialist consultancy focusing in all aspects of equality and diversity.  We have worked for the last ten years with organisations in the private, public and voluntary sectors to design and deliver training and implement equality and diversity policy.
We tailor our intervention to your specification and work alongside your vision and budget.  Our approach is to create products and materials that reflect the needs of your business
.

Equality Training provides businesses and organisations with the tools they need to make their services and employment accessible to an increasingly diverse population.   Successful organisations recognise that equality and diversity is far more than legal compliance or just a human resources issue.

Equality and diversity affects all areas of an organisation. It is important to ensure that practices are not only sound, but are perceived as equitable by staff and customers.
 

A deciding factor for many organisations in choosing with whom they do business is evidence of equality and diversity policies and their implementation.
 
Equality and diversity training, equality impact assessments and disability access audits enable organisations to plan how to identify their statutory obligations, develop diversity policies, and give staff a working understanding of the organisation and their personal responsibilities.


Diversity covers visible and non-visible differences. Harnessing these differences creates a productive environment where people are valued and their talents are fully utilised.

There is a compelling legal, business and ethical need for equal opportunities and the wider issues of equality and diversity training in the workplace. The object of training is to facilitate a change in attitude and culture, whilst providing staff with knowledge and skills to underpin working effectively in a diverse environment.

"We are happy to recommend Equality Training as a very professional but flexible and friendly research and training organisation. We are pleased that we selected them to work with us in improving our own response to disabled people, principally by helping us to listen to the voice of our own students and staff, and identify the most sensible next steps."
