Content Review and Revision
Trained in web accessibility, culturally-responsive teaching, and Universal Design for Learning, our team specializes in reviewing instructional content to offer insights to create more inclusive and accessible learning experiences. We will review existing documents and online tools to ensure they meet accessibility standards, as well as provide guidance on how to ensure your content is free of bias, stereotypes, and offensive terms while still allowing for the expression of diverse ideas.
Diversity and Inclusion Training
Feeling included in a group is pivotal for organizational success. Individuals who feel welcome are more likely to stay at an organization longer as well as be more productive. We offer training and consultation services that focus on raising individual awareness about organizational diversity as well as bias, prejudice, and bullying in the workplace. We strive to help others build a more inclusive environment while seeking to improve internal and external organizational relationships.
