In order to develop improved tolerance and understanding of each others culture the most important thing to do is to spend time outside of the workplace and team building activities.  We should find ways and opportunities to incorporate this at regular intervals to develop deeper understanding of differences of culture and environment in which we grow.

I enjoyed that the flow of the material was such that if you made a choice that wasn't the best choice for that scenario you got to see not only how your response played out but how the appropriate response also played out.

This should be eye opening to everyone. Videos were well done showing microaggression that most people cannot recognize in themselves.

Great course to remind us that even not saying anything or trying not to be involved is not an option.

This course helped raise awareness around what types of interactions are considered racism. Often, people do not realize unconscious stigma and beliefs based on race. This course increased consciousness of these biases, and may help to consider people as an individual rather than preconceived notions.

The four scenarios represented the many differences we see each day. And we should respect and appreciate everyone's race, gender and cultural background that makes them unique. Thank you for this very helpful training.
