Example
of a Two Day Workshop run for Brent Council
The
programme is designed to build on the existing capacity of the participants to
deliver an effective diversity training module. The workshop is run on a participant
observer basis, building on the knowledge and skills of the participants.
The
module is divided into two parts. Part 1outlines the content of a Diversity
Awareness Workshop. Part 2 covers the issues participants need to consider
when training this topic.
The
participants will experience the exercises in Part 1 as would any other
participant on a Diversity Awareness training day. Following sections of the programme
a review session will allow participants to process the information from a training
perspective.
Please
note: Additional topics may be added as required if participants wish to refresh
their training skills. These are outlined in Part Three.
