Most diversity training programs are created for compliance, not for transformation. Diversity: Beyond the Checkbox is different.
We don’t stop at what diversity is or why it’s the right thing to do for people. Instead, we delve into specifics on achieving the business results that organizations seek. This course will guide you through effective communication and respectful interaction with employees, clients, and customers in our ever evolving and diverse world and provide you with a strong foundation for your future DEI efforts.

The concept of diversity encompasses understanding, acceptance, and respect. Beyond the typical focus on race and gender, diversity is a kaleidoscope of backgrounds, perspectives, abilities, and experiences, as well as the exploration of these differences.

Diversity: Beyond the Checkbox takes what is a highly topical and critical subject and breaks it down in such a way that it is so easily consumed online. The course really helps to understand the full meaning and implications of embracing diversity - from everyone's perspective. It also helps you to understand how to make it come alive and how it connects to bottom line performance of the business. I highly recommend this course.

Diversity: Beyond the Checkbox offers a fresh and approachable course on Diversity & Inclusion. It is clear that the team really cares about the issue, and numerous videos and spotlights on different people and their experiences make it personal. Information is presented succinctly and is easy to grasp and absorb. I came away knowing – and understanding -- more than I did in the beginning. All around, I would highly recommend this course!
As an educator and social justice advocate, I believe that it is everyone's role to ensure a more equitable and just world for everyone. ""Diversity: Beyond the Checkbox"" provides an accessible array of tools for anyone to use to promote diversity and inclusion not only at work, but in their personal lives as well. I think that anyone who takes part in this course will not only walk away more knowledgeable about diversity and inclusion, but also more confident in promoting diversity and inclusion.

Before taking this course, I was not aware of the pros and cons of diversity in the workplace. This course laid out and explained Diversity and Inclusion in an engaging manner. The teachers knew what they were discussing and shared their own sense of diversity. I was surprised by how well the course taught technical terms and historic laws related to diversity in an engaging manner. This course was well produced and fun to take while being very informational. As a member of Gen Z, I’ll be entering the workforce fairly soon. Courses like these are very important for all workers because of how diverse Gen Z is.

I just completed the Diversity: Beyond the Checkbox course and wanted to say thank you for the opportunity to learn more about diversity, equity, and inclusion. There were some very eye-opening statistics throughout and I really enjoyed the marketing component. As a Director, this is a great resource as we move our journey forward with enhanced diversity.

I just got off an employee relations call, and I had to reach out to tell you how the call started. The employee said the issue happened right after she finished “the best diversity training I’ve ever taken in my entire life”! She was referencing the Diversity: Beyond the Checkbox course in BAYADA University, she said it was fantastic and inspiring
