DEI Training for Remote Teams: Best Practices and Tools
As remote work continues to become the new normal, it is important to ensure that Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) training is not lost in translation. In fact, remote teams may even need more support when it comes to DEI training, as communication and collaboration can become more challenging without in-person interactions.
At Unscripted Consult, we understand the importance of providing effective DEI training to remote teams. Our Anti-Racism Certification Program offers a comprehensive approach to addressing racism in the workplace, including remote work environments. Here are some best practices and tools for effective remote DEI training:
- Foster a safe and inclusive virtual environment: Establish a brave space for open dialogue and discussions around DEI topics. Encourage team members to share their experiences and perspectives, and actively listen to one another.
- Provide engaging and interactive training sessions: Incorporate interactive tools such as virtual breakout rooms, polls, and quizzes to keep participants engaged and encourage participation.
- Use multimedia resources: Incorporate multimedia resources such as videos, infographics, and podcasts to provide a variety of learning experiences for team members.
- Ensure accessibility: Make sure that all team members have equal access to the training materials and that they are designed with accessibility in mind.
- Foster a culture of continuous learning: Encourage ongoing learning and development by providing additional resources and opportunities for team members to continue their DEI education.
