Equity, Diversity & Inclusion Foundations Training
Embrace Differences. Inclusive Culture. Eliminate Prejudice.
To see real change and leverage the full potential of all an organization’s talent you must go beyond diversity and inclusion and focus on the principles of equity, diversity, and inclusion in the workplace. Corridor’s new EDI training focuses on issues that directly and indirectly impact their work, productivity, and workplace culture.
The EDI Foundations course is designed for employees at all levels of your organization, the training uses engaging examples, case studies and personal exercises to help employees fully realize the implications and results of discrimination and exclusion. The EDI Foundations training covers:
- Key concepts and terminology under the Equity, Diversity & Inclusion umbrella, including accessibility
- Socially constructed perceptions that contribute to the marginalization of certain groups
- Bias, Stereotypes, Prejudice
- Social identities, social location, and “intersectionality”
- Power and privilege
- The basis and impacts of systems of oppression and what we mean by “dominant” and “non-dominant” groups
- How does social location play out in real life
- Human rights in the context of the Canadian Human Rights Act and Prohibited Grounds of Discrimination
Diverse perspectives promote innovation, creative thinking and objectivity, leading to more productive problem solving. Diverse teams that include women, new or different cultures, 2SLGBTQIA+, and Indigenous people benefit from ideas and different approaches to support projects and identify opportunities. Multiple voices cultivate new perspectives and “out of the box” thinking boosts your company’s intellectual potential.
Corridor’s Equity, Diversity & Inclusion training enables organizations to implement change, promote innovation, and the individual exercises enable employees to objectively problem solve. Your entire organization will continually evolve — our Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) training will benefit your bottom line and deliver an increased level of social responsibility to your customers as a factor of doing business.
