FEATURING…
In this month’s newsletter, we are starting a new feature section that will showcase one of our training partners and provide a brief overview of a course that we can sponsor your business to attend. This month we are showcasing the ODEN (Ontario Disability Employment Network) and their DACT (Disability Confidence & Awareness Training).
The Disability Confidence Awareness Training is offered in both, an in person or online (self-directed) learning format. The ODEN website provides the following learning objectives for each training delivery option.
In-Person
This Disability Awareness & Confidence Training module is designed for those wanting to gain knowledge in order to be responsive to the broader abilities, competencies, and needs of people who have a disability. ODEN trainers will prepare your teams to confidently support people who have a disability and onboard new employees who have a disability, with confidence.
Online (self-directed)
This online, self-directed training will prepare staff to confidently support people who have a disability. It explains the benefits of inclusive hiring practices and dispels the misconceptions and myths that frequently surrounds people living with a disability. This course will also prepare staff to help employers onboard new employees who have a disability, with confidence.
