Disability Essentials

This course supports delegates to understand the needs and rights of disabled people, to tackle
social barriers, and to ensure they can support disabled colleagues and customers effectively.
We explore our perspectives on disability, before examining how different ‘models’ of disability
may have influenced our thinking.

Delegates will learn how to apply positive disability etiquette in order to support, and advocate for individuals with a range of impairments. The course will invite us to challenge outdated ideas and attitudes, to arrive at a conception of ‘disability’ that aligns with your business’ values, and those that are personally salient to delegates.
