FAQs

Why should I enroll in this Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Belonging Certification Program?

Study after study has proven that diverse organizations enjoy benefits that more homogenous companies do not, including being 35% more likely to have better financial returns (McKinsey) and up to 32.2% higher IPO/acquisition success rates (Harvard Business Review). However, these benefits aren't unlocked by simply hiring a diverse workforce: you also need to create an inclusive workplace. And that is often easier said than done.

In this online DEI certificate program, you will learn about the difference between diversity and inclusion. Moreover, you will learn how to create a more inclusive and equitable organization where all your employees feel like they belong and are able to thrive. The lessons are a combination of theoretical and practical, so that you are equipped with the knowledge and skills you need to make your DEIB initiatives a success.

How will this Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Belonging Certificate Program help me tackle DEI projects?

The Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Belonging Certificate Program is a comprehensive, in-depth online course that focuses both on the complexities of DEIB, as well as the business context for diversity and inclusion. After taking a deep dive into modern DEIB, including lessons on legal issues and the challenges faced by specific identity groups, you will focus on the skills and knowledge needed in practice. In addition to an entire module focused on inclusive communication, you will also study organizational culture, so that you fully understand the context of your diversity and inclusion projects.

Is there a fixed schedule?

No. This program is 100% online and self-paced! When you learn and how much time you spend each day, week, or month is up to. In total, you will need to invest approximately 35 hours to finish the program and obtain your certificate.

How long do I have access to the program?

In total, you will have 12 months of access to the student portal, all lessons, and learning materials. On average, members complete their (first) program in 3 - 4 months.

Is this program the right fit for me?

If you’re not sure if this program is the right fit, we are here to help you determine which program is the right fit for your goals and needs! Simply talk to one of our admissions advisors or send them an email at [email protected].

This was an excellent program and I thought when I first started the program that I knew a lot about DEIB, it didn't take me long to see I had only scratched the surface. Really glad to have taken this course and enhance my knowledge both personally and professionally!

Useful for practical implementation of a DEIB strategy, but lacks on the theoretical side for its development.

I do not have an HR background and was eager to learn more about D&I practises. I found the DEIB program really interesting, quite thought-provoking and was engaged in the content throughout. It has defintely helped me understand the growing field of D&I more and how it aligns with HR. It included so many different toolkits, resources, templates and theories that I will heavily use in the future. I thoroughly recommend the course!

This program is a great if you have worked in a People team for some time or have taken an introduction class to DEIB. There is alot of learning and theories that are very useful. I would suggest taking notes on what the instructors are talking about.
