Course Overview

Today’s workforce spans five generations, represents countless cultural backgrounds, and includes people of all races, religions, abilities, gender identities, and sexual orientations. This unprecedented diversity brings tremendous opportunity—research shows diverse teams are more innovative, make better decisions, and outperform homogeneous groups. Yet diversity alone isn’t enough. Without inclusion, diverse talent feels marginalized, disengaged, and ultimately leaves.

Organizations that embrace both diversity and inclusion gain competitive advantages: higher employee engagement, lower turnover, greater innovation, better problem-solving, and improved financial performance. But creating an inclusive workplace requires more than good intentions—it demands that every employee understand their role in making colleagues feel valued, respected, and able to contribute fully.

This course provides employees with foundational knowledge about workplace diversity and practical strategies for creating inclusive environments. Employees learn what diversity and inclusion mean, recognize behaviors that exclude or marginalize others, understand common roadblocks to inclusion, and gain concrete actions they can take to support colleagues from all backgrounds.
