Key Takeaways

1

We understand that you are in different phases of your DEI journey so, our curriculum can be easily adapted to support each individual journey.

2

Not just a learning plan, the curriculum is also a communications strategy to help sustain the DEI buzz throughout the year which helps build a DEI culture and ensure DEI is operational.

3_new
Email template kits are available to support the launch of your DEI campaign throughout the year, generate buzz, and help build a DEI culture.
4_new
Measure the efficacy of your DEI training with behavior change selfassessments that learners complete at the start of year 1, and at the end of each year of the curriculum.
5_new
Two-page facilitator guides are available
to guide leaders through DEI
discussions in scheduled team huddles.
6_new
To reinforce learning and sustain the DEI buzz, we now offer a Beat-the Clock gaming engine that is deployed at the end of each year of the curriculum.
Three-Year DEI Curriculum

Building a more inclusive and equitable culture
 
To build a DEI culture, training must change employees’ behavior. This type of learning is an ongoing process, and to sustain lasting change, DEI strategies must include constant reinforcement. That is why our curriculum includes four learning stages per year. Each stage consists of three to five components from the six outlined below.
 
Email Template Kit and Campaign Video

Each stage of the learner journey starts with engagement. An email template kit accompanied by a high-impact campaign video (if available) hooks learners emotionally with the topic and raises awareness in anticipation of further learning to
come.

Y1 and Y2: Primary Learning, Y3: Refresher Training

icons_Primary Learning Course

By gaining knowledge of key DEI concepts and practicing inclusive and equitable behaviors, the primary learning raises awareness of the behaviors that need to change and gives learners the motivation they need to change them. After an introduction to DEI, learners dive deeper into focused DEI topics to expand and apply their learning throughout Y1 and Y2. In Y3, learners take refresher training with the option of testing out.   
  
In Y1, leaders receive a tailored version of the training that helps them adopt a DEI mindset to support their role in nurturing a DEI culture. Subsequent quarters support leaders to confront systemic DEI issues and handle difficult conversations and decision making around those issues.

The primary learning is then reinforced in a scheduled team huddle that reminds learners of the behaviors that need to change and motivates them to pause and reflect before they act. A two-page facilitator guide for leaders guides the discussion.

 

Email Booster with Infographic

icons_Email Booster with Infographic

Quarters 1, 2, and 3 of each year will end with an email booster accompanied by an infographic. These email boosters sustain the DEI buzz throughout the year and reinforce learning with resources that can support learners in the moment.   

 

Beat-the-Clock Refresher Quiz

icons_Beat the clock refresher quiz

At the end of each year of the curriculum, the primary learning is reinforced for the final time in a gaming engine called the Beat the Clock quiz that requires learners to demonstrate they can apply the desired DEI behaviors in the workplace. 

Behavior Change Self-Assessment

icons_Behavior Change Self-Assessment

At the end of each year of the curriculum, learners will also complete a behavior change self-assessment where they analyze how their DEI behaviors have changed throughout the year. This also helps organizations measure training efficacy.
