Inequality and exclusion don’t happen by accident — they’re built into systems, practices, and even the words we use every day. Who gets heard, who gets opportunities, and who feels welcome are all shaped by unseen forces of power, privilege, and bias. Left unchecked, these forces reinforce exclusion, inequality, and injustice — in workplaces, communities, and everyday interactions.

The DEI Foundations Package equips you with the knowledge, tools, and confidence to confront bias, use inclusive language, and create workplaces and communities where everyone belongs. You’ll uncover hidden assumptions, see how systems shape outcomes, and gain practical strategies to act intentionally. Because inclusion doesn’t happen by chance — it happens when people like you step up, speak out, and make change happen.

We’ll Teach You

By completing the DEI Foundations Package, you’ll gain the knowledge, skills, and confidence to create workplaces and communities where everyone belongs. You’ll:

• Understand how bias and language shape inclusion — explore how unconscious assumptions, everyday words, and systemic forces influence who gets heard, valued, and included.
• Reflect on your own influence — examine your beliefs, experiences, and privileges, and see how they shape interactions and decisions.
• Build confidence to act — develop the courage to ask questions, challenge assumptions, and navigate difficult conversations with care and respect.
• Apply practical strategies and tools — translate awareness into action using inclusive language, bias-interruption techniques, and repeatable strategies for everyday practice.
• Foster environments where everyone belongs — create workplaces and communities that celebrate diversity, equity, and inclusion, and where belonging becomes habitual.

The DEI Foundations Package is designed to be interactive, practical, and grounded in real-world application. You’ll learn through:

• Guidance from leading voices — insights from global and local thought leaders, advocates, and lived-experience experts shaping the future of DEI.
• Scenario-based exercises — real workplace, community, and everyday situations that challenge you to reflect and apply what you learn.
• Experiential and gamified activities — animations, interactive exercises, and tools that make complex concepts tangible and memorable.
• Practical strategies and resources — downloadable guides, toolkits, and frameworks you can use immediately to interrupt bias and foster inclusion.
