There are 3 modules in this course
In collaboration with the HRO DE&I Training Workstream, Enterprise Learning and Corporate Training/Leadership Development, three training modules were developed. These modules are designed to provide Clients with a DE&I foundation and tools to create and maintain an inclusive workplace.
The intention of DEI Training is not to force anyone to change their mind or opinion, but to help build awareness of unconscious bias, cultural competence, or other barriers to diversity, equity, inclusion (DEI), and belonging. It can also motivate positive behaviors and attitudes and foster an environment where workers can feel comfortable bringing their full, authentic selves to work. DEI Training is not a stopping point and should underscore the importance of having a solid foundation of strategic priorities, consistent measurement and evaluation, and a clear alignment between organizational values and DEI goals. ADP does not endorse any training or teaching that compels an employee to believe any of the concepts listed in Florida HB 7.
Audience: Employees, Management & Executives. Introduction of fundamental concepts of DE&I that engages the learner in ‘courageous conversations’ beyond race and gender. This course is designed to move you along the journey of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) - to share responsibilities for how DEI can improve our workplace and our lives.

This was an excellent course, easy to follow. However, some questions on the quizzes were a little off and not set up properly. But it allows you to retry several times.
