Diversity in the Workplace
Introduction
Aberystwyth University provides mandatory training for all staff to:
- familiarise them with equality legislation
- give them an understanding of the broader issues around equality/diversity
- raise their awareness of their responsibilities and rights as members of staff
The training is provided by means of an online tutorial. This tutorial can be done in one sitting or in 'bite-sized' chunks at your convenience. The quiz contained within the programme must be completed for you to finish the training. These quiz marks will be retained and will be used to identify further training needs for staff.
The tutorial is available in both Welsh and English.
