Introduction to Unconscious Bias (On-Demand)

Unconscious bias e-learning for managers – online and on-demand

Launched in March 2017, our Introduction to Unconscious Bias is an on-demand unconscious bias elearning solution for anyone looking to boost their skills and confidence around unconscious bias in the workplace. At just £20 (+ VAT) per person, it offers fantastic value for money if you’re looking to stay up to speed with the latest diversity best practice.

EW Group are award-winning specialists in diversity e-learning. In September 2017, we won the Course of the Year Award from Nimble eLearning for our unconscious bias elearning programme for global recruitment firm Harvey Nash.

Who is this unconscious bias elearning for?

We designed this Introduction to Unconscious Bias with first-line and mid-level managers in mind. You may have already received mandatory training in equality, diversity and inclusion, online or in-person.

Now you’re looking to expand your specific knowledge around unconscious bias, its adverse impact when it comes to decision-making and people management, and what you as a manager can practically do to overcome it. The learning is relevant to managers around the world, not just in the UK.

The course is available immediately. Simply register on our e-learning platform, select the course from our online Catalogue, complete payment with your credit/debit card or PayPal, and we’ll email your log-in details over straight away.

On-demand unconscious bias elearning – Outcomes

By the end of the elearning, you’ll be able to:

• Describe different types of unconscious bias, both from an individual and an organisational perspective

• Understand how various sources of influence can prompt biased behaviour

• Identify and articulate how unconscious bias can impact on decision-making at a number of stages of the employee journey

• Understand the concept of ‘in- and out-groups’ and how this affects team culture and performance

• Describe how the notion of trust can affect your people preferences, and how to practically overcome this.

On-demand unconscious bias elearning – Outline

Our online training isn’t just limited to unconscious bias as a concept or a science. Instead, it looks at the everyday context and realities of bias: where it comes from, how it affects us all, and what practical actions you can take towards best practice. We want to take you beyond the basics of unconscious bias training and get right to the heart of the matter, namely how it might affect you and your organisation.

To do so, we’ve created a series of unconscious bias training videos. Each video features our acting team, making the learning as true-to-life, insightful and memorable as possible.

Duration

The course should take around 30-40 minutes to complete. You can finish the course all in one go, or come and go as you please: your progress will be saved for next time you log in.
