Online learning

Our online learning modules are accessed through our online learning portal, Tribal Habits. They are self-paced modules which allow users to progress at their own speed, at a time they choose.

Online learning can be a great option for large workforces. It is however less in-depth than our standard training sessions, so employers should be aware that online learning may not necessarily give their workforce the full set of skills needed to ensure compliance with discrimination or human rights law.

Online learning can also be suitable for people who may not be able to access face-to-face training, or those wanting a brief introduction to anti-discrimination and human rights law in Queensland.

Registrations for up to 100 users can be processed directly through our online learning platform, Tribal Habits.

For larger groups, please contact us on 1300 130 670 or email our training team for details on group subscription rates and the ability to monitor and report on your group’s training.

Diversity awareness

The Diversity awareness training modules have been developed to support organisations to value and promote diversity in the workplace through greater understanding and practical strategies for inclusion.

This package includes six modules:

  1. Diversity awareness: an introduction to diversity

    This topic provides an introduction to the concept of diversity with a focus on the business benefits of a diverse and inclusive workplace. This is the first module in the diversity awareness package.

  2. Diversity awareness: Aboriginal peoples and Torres Strait Islander peoples

    This topic takes a look at how we can increase our cultural awareness in relation to Aboriginal peoples and Torres Strait Islander peoples. A review of history, language and statistics leads participants to better understand the context and barriers faced by First Nations peoples. We then examine some workplace strategies to improve inclusion of First Nations peoples in organisations.

  3. Diversity awareness: culturally and linguistically diverse communities

    This topic takes a look at culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) people in Australia. We look at what CALD means, statistics from around Australia and employment challenges. We then examine some workplace strategies to improve inclusion of CALD people in organisations.

    This topic takes a look at disability in Australia. We examine what disability is, including models and types of disability. We also provide tips for communication and improving inclusion of people with disability in the workplace.

  5. Diversity awareness: LGBTIQ+ 

    This topic introduces participants to some of the key terminology and concepts relating to LGBTIQ+ communities, sex characteristics, gender identity and expression and sexuality. We look at statistics and challenges in the workplace and in Australia for LGBTIQ+ people, as well as considerations and strategies for more inclusive workplace environments.
