This was a great course! it really helped viewers put themselves in the shoes of different coworkers and different roles. Lots of self reflection opportunities.

Watching each scenario unfold really helped me see how important each person's reaction is, whether they are one of the two people involved in an encounter, if they are an observer/bystander.  Knowing how to respond, professionally, ethically, and conscientiously is important, if we want to create a workplace where all employees, regardless of their job, race, gender, orientation, or culture feel safe, respected, and appreciated.

I thought this course was put together very well! Not only was it engaging, it also covered a wide variety of topics on racial bias that I did not expect it to cover.

I agree that through the scenario-based learning videos and understanding one's perspective, us nurse workers will develop skills for recognizing racial bias and confronting discrimination.

I think it's important that everyone takes accountability for the roles they play when it comes to racial biases. It's not up to anyone but yourself to get educated on the matters and decrease your own ignorance whether it's intentional or not.

Coming from a job that had absolutely no DEI training yet preached diversity and inclusion, I am impressed with the learning material that was provided and I anticipate a very welcoming and educated staff when I start working at BWFH.

I think that this is a great way for us to take time to take a step back and hold ourselves accountable to our actions and the way we behave/think during situations. With the help of this course I think we will be able to learn to acknowledge and challenge our biases in order to foster a more welcoming and safer work environment.
