    Frequently Asked Questions about Diversity

    Diversity is the range and exploration of people with unique backgrounds, including education, socioeconomic status, ethnicity, culture, gender, and sexual orientation. Right now, diversity and inclusion are major topics in the workplace as companies seek to hire people from all backgrounds. Having such a varied workforce is called diversity in the workplace. Such a practice helps empower all employees without bias or discrimination and creates a safe, dignified environment where employees feel a sense of belonging and embrace each other's differences.‎

    Learning about diversity—especially in the workplace—can help you see past any previously held stigmas or biases that you may not even realize you had. As a business leader, it can help you reach out to a larger pool of potential employees, which can lead to new perspectives, increased profits, and more innovative ideas. It also leads to happier employees and a healthier company culture overall. When you tackle what makes your employees, clients, and co-workers unique, you become a more effective communicator and negotiator. On a personal note, learning about diversity makes you a better citizen of your community and the world. You're more equipped to understand the way other people think and what motivates their actions. You can carry these skills with you throughout your career and your personal relationships.‎

    Almost any career can benefit from taking courses in diversity and related topics. Educators who study diversity may better understand students from all walks of life and can tailor lessons to fit their needs. In law enforcement, officers who undergo diversity training may be less likely to use racial profiling and have more understanding of the beliefs and cultures of the people who make up their communities. HR managers and representatives can learn more about diversity in order to implement diversity in workplace policies. If you work in jobs like customer service or hospitality and encounter dozens of unique people each day, courses in diversity can help you serve them without prejudice.‎

    Online Diversity courses offer a convenient and flexible way to enhance your knowledge or learn new Diversity skills. Choose from a wide range of Diversity courses offered by top universities and industry leaders tailored to various skill levels.‎

    When looking to enhance your workforce's skills in Diversity, it's crucial to select a course that aligns with their current abilities and learning objectives. Our Skills Dashboard is an invaluable tool for identifying skill gaps and choosing the most appropriate course for effective upskilling.
