Inclusion Learning
We are developing a culture of inclusion, where diversity is recognised, understood, and valued.
It is important for learners to refresh their inclusion training and knowledge every few years, as legislation, terminology, and best practice progress regularly. Which is why we have made available inclusion training courses that will be relevant and engaging for all staff, and which will support continuous learning and discussion on these important issues.
All staff should complete our core inclusion learning programme (Warwick Principles and Social Inclusion), and you'll find additional inclusion training and resources below.
The Warwick Principles and Social Inclusion Moodle looks at your rights and responsibilities. It takes 45-60 minutes to complete.
GoodCourse
This email course is developed by GoodCourse – experts in engaging inclusion training. Staff will receive bite-sized modules throughout the year, so that learning is continuous, not a one off. This year's modules are: Embracing Neurodiversity, Speak Up (AKA Active Bystander), Inclusion in a Hybrid Workforce, and Navigating a Multigenerational Workforce.
Introduction to ED&I
This e-learning course created by experts at Advance HE uses true stories from students and staff. The two modules cover 'the basics' (what is discrimination, unacceptable behaviours) and 'beyond the law' (taking action, being an ally). A Personal Learning Journal will help you further reflect on information presented.

Designing and delivering inclusive training
By embedding inclusive practices into training, we can create programmes that make a real difference by nurturing the most diverse and inclusive citizens and leaders for today and tomorrow. On this page, we’ve outlined some key principles to consider in developing inclusive training.
Say My Name
We all want to feel valued and respected, you might not have known that simply taking the time to pronounce others’ names properly can really help to create an inclusive community. In this short course, we explore why our names matter to us, some tips and techniques to help when encountering unfamiliar names, and look at the importance of getting names and pronouns right.
A quick request - please answer the diversity monitoring questions on your personal record.
We are committed to removing economic, social, and cultural barriers that have prevented people from succeeding at Warwick. To do this, we need your help to understand our community. The University collects a range of diversity monitoring data for staff and students, answering these questions should only take a few minutes.See more on what we ask and why here.
