About the Course
The workplace is constantly evolving, and we are becoming more accepting of people and all their differences. With 1 in 5 Australians having a disability, chances are many of your employees and customers have a disability. An inclusive workplace brings new and valuable perspectives to your workplace that reflect our community.
By choosing this workshop, you have taken a vital step to becoming a disability inclusive organisation. Delivered by facilitators with personal and professional experience with disability, this workshop will assist you and your team to understand some of the fears, uncertainties and myths around people with disability. It will uncover strategies that you can use to ensure employees and customers with disability are supported, included, and valued.
Below you will find the outcomes and a draft agenda to give you a general overview of what we cover. Our goal is to understand your specific objectives and tailor a detailed, bespoke agenda that best meets your needs. Sessions are typically half-day or a full day, depending on your requirements.
