What our learners say...
The delivery of the course was 1A.
The training sessions were fun and engaging as they were interactive, there was opportunity to ask questions and the slides used were interesting. I have starting listening to a book recommended on the course - Time to Think - and it is blowing my mind. So helpful to me, thank you for this resource, it is so valuable. Best wishes.
I found the training really informative. It surprised me how rife discrimination is for those of protective characteristics under the Equality Act 2010. There needs to be a greater awareness of intersectionality. Training should be compulsory within the public & private sectors of employment to educate & reduce discrimination & violence both at work & at home.
