Understanding Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, and Accessibility in Practice

Each learner enters conversations around topics in equity, diversity, inclusion, and accessibility with different knowledge, skills, and lived experiences, reflecting their own unique position within intersecting systems of power and oppression. This course introduces participants to the skills of critical self-assessment, social location, and diverse perspective-taking that are foundational practices in equity, diversity, inclusion, and accessibility; and describes key content necessary for such skill development. This course will be suitable for everyone, regardless of where they are currently in their own personal journeys. It will allow all participants to critically reflect on their strengths and areas for further growth, and develop an action plan to contribute towards a more equitable, diverse, inclusive, and accessible workplace environment.
