DCA’s Knowledge Programs are facilitated sessions aimed at increasing employee knowledge, skills and awareness of a range of diversity and inclusion topics. The programs are grounded in the latest DCA and industry research and delivered by experienced facilitators.
Education is one of the most effective ways to foster inclusion and increase employee support for D&I initiatives, and DCA’s Knowledge Programs are an excellent way to upskill yourself and your staff and complement or kickstart internal D&I initiatives.
Our exclusive Open Knowledge Programs are a great way for you to see how our education programs could fit into your organisation’s learning calendar.
Registrations are limited to 2 people per organisation.
Our program structure includes discussion, self-reflection and small group activities. Participants will have access to post-program resources.
Building Respectful Workplaces
Marking the beginning of the 16 days of activism against gender-based violence next week, DCA is offering our new Leaders Preventing and Responding to Sexual Harassment Knowledge Program as an open program during Inclusion at Work Week.
This program will outline what sexual harassment in the workplace is, present the key legal and organisational responsibilities that workplaces and leaders must prevent and address sexual harassment, outline how you as a leader can prevent and respond to workplace incidents and explore how fostering inclusive workplace behaviours can help create environments where sexual harassment is less likely to occur.
