including me.

As much as you might want to, you can’t and won’t get everything
100% right all the time – especially with accessibility!
However, by asking the right questions, knowing how to confidently approach a disabled person, and knowing what not to say and do – your attitude and efforts can be remembered positively.
What is Disability Awareness Training and is it right for me?
It’s great for…
ANY & EVERY business that wants to be inclusive of disabled employees and customers!
And particularly good for…
Anyone in a customer-facing role..
Disability Awareness Training is intensive (but fun!) training on best practices, how to be more accessible, more engaging and how to better understand disability and disability law.
It’s about making the world more inclusive one person at a time.
