Unconscious Bias

A half-day training course for all staff 

Trends in society, our upbringings and our environments all influence the judgements and assumptions we make about people around us. These biases are part of us and almost impossible to be rid of. This training aims to build understanding of unconscious bias to allow us to better identify it and take steps to prevent it leading to discrimination. We don’t need to change who we are – diversity is a route to success – but we can improve recognition and adjust our behaviour to create more inclusive spaces.

Learn how past experience and environments influence our decisions without realising. Explore how everyone’s perceptions are different. Discover how everyone is biased, how to recognise it in yourself and how to challenge it.

Course Content

The following topics are covered over the course of the half-day:

  • What is Unconscious Bias? Explore some different types of assumption that we all make without realising

  • Acknowledgement and Acceptance: Recognise our own biases and how they influence our lives

  • Consequences and Discrimination: What can happen if unconscious bias goes unchecked and how it can harm an organisation

  • Change for the Better: Consider ways to challenge and adjust behaviour for you and your organisation
