But are we committed to the same improvements for our workers? In this course, participants will build practical skills to positively impact workplace inclusion, from recruitment to retention. With these tools, students will be able to build an equitable employee life cycle—from hiring, to onboarding, to training—and ​create a safe and inclusive environment for every staff member. In this course you will learn how to:

  *   Design an inclusive hiring process

Establish equitable human resources policies
