Disability Awareness
Training
‘DAT’ sessions aim to bring awareness and understanding of specific disabilities. Serving both employer and employee needs, we aim to challenge misconceptions to create the most effective working environment for everyone.
What is it?
This 3-hour group learning workshop is hosted by one of our Disability Specialist Psychologists and is targeted at groups of up to 10 individuals to attend. We recommend attendance from your close colleagues, HR personnel and line managers. You are also most welcome to attend.
The workshop aims to shift attitudes towards disabilities in the workplace and helps to create a positive and supportive working environment for all. It will teach those in attendance about the condition, diagnosis pathways and potential barriers in the workplace. The session will cover a range of support solutions and reasonable adjustments that could be implemented to benefit those with the diagnosis or barriers.
The interactive session includes a variety of group activities, games, question opportunities, discussions on case studies and good practice. We aim to make it a holistic learning experience for all. The session aims to challenge different beliefs and perceptions by providing a judgement free area to discuss all aspects of a disability, including its strengths and barriers within the workplace.
