Course outline

People that work in inclusion need a place to connect and network and share best practice. Inclusion work can be difficult and those that work in inclusion often receive push back. This forum will be a space to voice concerns, seek advice and learn from others all doing the work. Each forum will begin with a short presentation focus and be followed by questions and discussion. The Focus for this forum will be Black History.

Training topics will include:

  • Understanding the Black experience is not monolithic
  • How to support Blackness through ethos and planning
  • Black Allyship

Learning outcomes:

  • Be able to identify areas of concern and training needs for IELA members
  • To support members to access support by building  relationships with others in the sector
