LondonLearning NewsMarshall E-Learning

Marshall launches a range of five advanced e-learning courses in diversity to empower organisations with the knowledge, resources and tools needed to drive impactful change.

Marshall E-Learning Consultancy is excited to share its latest addition to its extensive e-learning course library. The latest advanced diversity skills range is designed to empower organisations with the knowledge, resources and tools needed to drive impactful change. Each of these five courses contribute to creating inclusive workplace cultures across all sectors, ensuring that organisations understand the importance of all employees feeling recognised, accepted and valued for their contribution.

The advanced diversity skills range are each micro e-learning courses, meaning that they take 15 minutes to complete. Micro e-learning courses are a versatile and accessible training solution, especially for busy corporations. As many organisations are still coming to terms with the changed landscape of the working world since the Covid-19 pandemic, they can rest assured that our courses have adapted to suit this new framework with our easy-access, relevant, and streamlined courses.

This course offers guidance on how to kickstart conversations about DEI, how to challenge discriminatory behaviour and consider personal actions to improve your influence as a change agent.

Each of these advanced diversity skills range courses were written by Ann Allcock, our head of diversity and the former head of diversity at Business in the Community. These courses were developed in response to our clients wanting a mature approach to diversity and inclusion training instead of training of this nature strictly being an issue of compliance.

The entire team at Marshall E-Learning Consultancy are extremely proud of these new advanced diversity skills range. The timing of National Inclusion Week 2023, and it’s theme of ‘Take Action, Make Impact’ has lined up perfectly for our launch, with these new courses being a strong stepping stone for organisations to take action and make a meaningful impact on their employees and their wider culture.
