Build practical inclusion knowledge, confidence and skills through open EDI courses and CMI accredited programmes. Whether you want focused learning on a specific topic or a recognised qualification, there is a route designed for you.
Most people attending our EDI courses already know inclusion matters. What they need is practical knowledge, confidence and language they can use in real workplace situations, from handling difficult conversations to building more inclusive practice in their role.
With over 20 years’ experience delivering EDI training to UK employers, Inclusive Employers has helped thousands of individuals and organisations move from good intentions to practical, measurable change.
The course was well-structured and delivered with clarity. The trainer brought strong expertise and made the content relevant to real workplace scenarios. I would recommend this course to colleagues looking to build a more inclusive professional environment.

Every session is led by an Inclusive Employers specialist who has worked inside organisations facing the same inclusion challenges you are. They bring the concepts to life with real examples.
Our EDI courses are designed to shift how people think and act at work, not just what they know. The content is informed by adult learning principles and practical inclusion best practice.
Attending a course puts you in the same community as hundreds of organisations working on inclusion for the long term. If you want to go further, our wider offer includes learning and development for organisations, Inclusion Partnerships and transformation and change support.
