The detailed curriculum outline of our Equality, Diversity and Discrimination Course is as follows:
Begin by exploring the core concepts of equality, diversity, inclusion, and discrimination. You’ll discover why these principles are essential for creating respectful, welcoming, and productive workplaces.
Laws play an important role in protecting individuals from discrimination. This module introduces key equality and diversity legislation while highlighting how Canadian organisations must also comply with applicable federal and provincial human rights legislation.
Creating inclusive workplaces starts with strong organisational policies. Learn how equality and diversity principles can be embedded into workplace procedures, recruitment, training, and everyday decision-making.
Human rights provide the foundation for fairness and respect. Explore the principles of human rights and their importance in supporting dignity, equal opportunities, and freedom from discrimination.
Evaluating policies and workplace practices helps organisations identify barriers and improve inclusion. Learn how equality analysis supports fair decision-making and positive organisational change.
Personal values and beliefs shape how people interact with others. This module examines how attitudes influence behaviour and why self-awareness is important in creating inclusive workplaces.
Understanding discrimination is the first step towards preventing it. Explore different forms of discrimination, their impact on individuals and organisations, and ways to promote fairness.
Assumptions can influence workplace decisions without us realising it. Learn how stereotypes, prejudice, discrimination, and bias develop and discover strategies for reducing their impact.
Sometimes barriers exist within organisational systems rather than individual behaviour. This module explains institutional discrimination and explores approaches to creating more equitable workplaces.
Everyone has unconscious biases that can influence decisions. Discover how recognising these biases supports fair recruitment, better teamwork, stronger leadership, and more inclusive workplace practices.
Affirmative action seeks to improve opportunities for underrepresented groups in certain contexts. This module explores the concept while recognising that Canadian employers may apply different equity and inclusion initiatives in accordance with applicable laws and organisational policies.
Conclude the course by learning how organisations monitor diversity initiatives, evaluate progress, measure outcomes, and continually strengthen inclusive workplace cultures.
