patronising

I object to being told what my ideal workplace should be. In doing so, you are making general assumptions rather than looking at each situation - exactly what the course tells us not to do.

It was far too long.

The content was useful but could be covered in half the time.

2/5
Overly long

A few less enforced breaks might have shortened it so that I didn't fade away before the end. Equity – so the best of us have to carry the rest of us.

A basic online training course

Online training courses of this nature are significantly more challenging for people with ADHD - which, given the subject matter, is a little ironic. A classroom environment with a lecturer in front of them is better because there are fewer distractions. However, if you must use online learning, TES has some good advice that should be shared with managers of ADHD staff to be able to support them to complete this here: https://www.timeshighereducation.com/campus/making-online-classes-work-students-adhd

Paronising

I understand why this is important training, however its presentation and vein attempt to quickly educate people on how to self reflect using basic CBT techniques left me feeling a little patronised. In contrast to my last statement, it is true that the majority of people lack this ability so a straight education piece would have been better rather than trying to effect cognitive behaviour. I conduct myself in the manner outlined naturally and felt that the tone of the session was aimed at people who do not. In short it could have been balanced better, I felt that it was telling me to change rather than educating me objectively on areas that I may not be ware of in terms of legislation etc. The whole training could have been delivered with one slide - "Don't be horrible, think before you speak and act, and treat people in a manner that you would like to be treated". However, if you are an idiot and behave like a moron then I guess it was an eye opener to some.

too long a course

whilst i appreciate the subject found course too long and in quite a few instances not relevant to my position or type of work.

2/5
set up to fail

you talk and give information through out the training, which is great but when you come to the test you have to read the questions and the choose the answer, but been dyslexic this is very not expectable. due to not been able to read the question and answers correctly .

Could all apply to Trans!

Could have been talking about trans and maybe some of this should be applied to the EDI training rather than the whole acceptance thing! 😊

Update on what is right,

Dit is nu een UK training (maar in de rest van de wereld best practice). Het kader van hoe dit moet/zal vertaald worden naar werking VLIZ is mij niet duidelijk.1) erg theoretische benadering 2) focus op wat verkeerd gaat ipv hoe je wel met elkaar kan omgaan waardoor het zijn doel mist. 3) geen handvaten voor goed gedrag enkel afwijzingen. Slachtoffers hebben altijd gelijk, maar wat moet je doen als je verkeerd begrepen bent? 4) verwijzing naar onze anti pest en andere procedures moet hier zeker op volgen want dat is super belangrijk om toch iets aan te reiken van handvaten voor toepassing binnen VLIZ.Ik zie en hoor rond mij dat deze opleiding eerder onzekerheid brengt bij sommigen dan oplossing aanbrengt over hoe het wel kan. Dit is dan ook mss pas de start, maar we zijn er nog niet klaar mee. Dat is ook belangrijke feedback voor HR denk ik.
