Inclusive Communities to Host Training for Trainers Workshop this September

Inclusive Communities (www.inclusive-communities.org) will be hosting its second Training for Trainers Workshop on September 19 and 20, 9 a.m. – 5 p.m. both days. Training for Trainers provides a foundation for how to organize effective workshops and trainings with diversity and inclusion in mind. Inclusive Communities will provide up to 20 hours of training on ORID method (Objective, Reflective, Interpretive, Decisional), foundational terms, and basics of identity, language, and bias. It is recommended that attendees participate in at least one Inclusive Communities workshop prior to taking this training.

The training will address the following:

  • History and basics of the ORID facilitation method
  • Discuss and practice skills creating brave spaces for facilitating dialogues around identity
  • Look at the emotional and cognitive response to this knowledge and how each individual interprets their role in the perpetuation of the particular topic
  • Discuss how we utilize this information for programming that can change the norms around identity and discrimination and prejudice in the workplace and community

The training cost is $375 for nonprofit employees and individuals, or $550 for for-profit business employees. Space is limited to 20 participants.
