What This Training Is and Is Not
This training is grounded in decades of Lila Kelly’s research and experience in diversity, equity, inclusion (DEI), and the hiring process. It includes a variety of examples of situations where unconscious bias can exist, both at individual and systemic levels. Most of these examples can exist whether interviewing applicants or meeting new customers, patients, students, or their families.
This training is not just a video. It is designed for the active learner to think more deeply about these issues and involves reading text, watching short videos, and responding to activity questions and quizzes.
This training is not a quick fix. Effective DEI work takes time, and this training is a great starting point that includes ideas and suggestions for continuing to raise awareness, eliminate bias, and make sustainable changes in your hiring process.
