training format and content
I found the training format engaging and realistic, particularly, the examples of micro aggressions in the workplace. Addressing the importance of the witness to micro aggressions and racial undertone comments was very helpful and, gave concrete examples of what to say that is professional and honest.

This was so illuminating.
This program was very illuminating and represents what we as an institution (MGH, HMS) have been striving to work on. I have taken several different implicit-bias training programs, but this one drove home the intimate details of what we and our colleagues experience.

It is so important to recognize the biases we have and that we bring to our workplace. I have been challenged to recognize these biases and have learned so much from programs like this—about myself, my colleagues, and my institutions.

I agree that the scenarios
I agree that the scenarios were helpful - more than I would have expected. Some of the characters were very exaggerated, and I wish there were some examples of the millions of more subtle aggressions that we perpetrate. Still, it was helpful. I thought my own physical reaction was as educational as anything - a reminder that there are physical health consequences of injustice.
