Meet our Diversity Trainers

The Diversity Builder Difference: Active Experiential Learning

Diversity Builder uses an experiential training facilitation and blended learn approach that is highly effective. Unlike lecture-driven training courses, our curriculum is delivered using adult learning principles. We believe workplace training is best received when it is engaging and relatable. Our trainers are consistent in their training and use tools such as group case study, role playing, and relevant learning activities. The critical source for learning resides in the adults and their personal connections to the topics.

Post Training Support

Diversity Builder provides post-training support to clients. It is our belief that integrating diversity extends beyond the initial training sessions. We offer tools, resources, and support to participants and management. Incorporating diversity workshops, inclusive policies, one-on-one sessions, and other strategies help companies develop a transformative workplace. Our trainers and consultants are available to answer questions from staff or management, as various diversity programs are implemented.
