An effective workforce is made up of employees of all abilities, and they all deserve an equal opportunity to succeed. So, it’s important for employees to be trained on the ways organizations provide those equal opportunities- by providing reasonable accommodations and preventing and addressing discrimination.
Disability Discrimination and Accommodation (Basic) centers around ensuring equal treatment for employees of all abilities. Through education, it aims to empower those who need resources to advocate for themselves and to give those who don’t need resources the tools to support their colleagues.
When employees succeed, organizations succeed. And that starts with engaging training that addresses the needs of everyone. An Advanced version also available.
