Equality Impact Assessment – foundation level

Course Overview: 

An equality impact assessment (EIA) will help you analyse your policies and practices to make sure they do not discriminate against or disadvantage people. EIAs provide an effective means of enabling organisations to measure their progress in matching their policies’ actual equality outcomes to their aims. They can also help to ensure that staff and customers are not discriminated against by the way in which an organisation operates, and can help public authorities ensure that their practices and policies work to promote equality and tackle discrimination.

Produced in partnership with Ionann Management Consultants and combining dramatised scenarios with insight from leading equality experts, this course provides an introduction to EIAs and sets out their importance in promoting equality and diversity.

Learning outcomes:  

This course will give a better understanding of:

• what an EIA is
