The importance of Disability Equality and Inclusion training
The Central Statistics Office report that 22% of the Irish population have a disability. It is therefore reasonable to assume that most people will have regular interactions with those who have a disability. Disability Equality and Inclusion Training has become an essential tool in cultivating an inclusive and accepting environment which is compliant with legislation and provides valuable insight into how to develop your disability inclusive strategy for colleagues, customers, and peers.
By identifying misconceptions and promoting a respectful and inclusive environment, employees attending our courses will gain necessary skills and confidence when interacting with colleagues and customers who have a disability. Promoting equality through Disability Equality and Inclusion Training, eliminates discrimination and creates an open and welcoming environment.
All AbilityWise Courses are delivered by highly qualified, professional trainers with first-hand experience of having a disability. This allows participants the opportunity to avail of candid discussions and to learn about first-hand experiences of living with a disability.
