About the Course

Defining Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in Organizations is the first course of a four-course series. This course introduces the core definitions of diversity, equity, and inclusion and reasons why these efforts can often fail. We will also explore the elements for making the case for diversity and the concept of DE&I maturation where learners can assess their organization’s activities to determine where it may place on the DE&I continuum. By the end of this course, you will be able to: 1. Provide a common understanding of the terms diversity, equity and inclusion and how can it be effectively implemented into an organization. 2. Understand how our changing demography will impact your organization, discover various arguments used to make the case for diversity and connect them to your organization's success. 3. Recognize the various levels of diversity in the DE&I continuum and where your organization may be. 4. Identify the common struggles with implementing DE&I initiatives and how to avoid the many ways diversity efforts fail....

I found some of the languages in the quizzes to be a little confusing and I wished there were more questions in the quizzes, but overall was really great and I learned a lot.

I found most of the information helpful, but it did not meet my personal needs. I would recommend the course to anyone serving on a DEI committee or team. my organization has a DEI policy, however I have never seen the product of their work.

Lots of weird bugs- punctuation marks mixed in with the text. I felt like the last assignment was cumbersome and difficult to understand.
