Rolling Out a Diversity and Inclusion Training Program in Your Company

Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging

The Union Black: Britain’s Black cultures and steps to anti-racism, is an online programme brought to you by Santander Universities in partnership with The Open University, and is once again open for enrolment. The programme will provide participants with an understanding of the origins and experience of Black British history and culture, and a critical appreciation of the concepts of intersectionality and race as a social construct, equipping them with the knowledge and tools to make positive change happen. A short trailer for the programme can be viewed here.

 

Who the programme is for?

All University staff and students. 

 

How do I enrol?

The programme is now ‘always on’ and will be freely available to staff and students at all UK Universities until May 2024 via the Santander Scholarship Platform

 

Do participants get a certificate?

Yes, participants will get a digital certificate upon completion.

 

Things to remember

We recommend that for each hour of content you may want to add a further hour to give yourself time to pause, reflect, and practice self-care if needed. We would also like to highlight that this course is based on a social learning model which is a good way of seeing what other participants have to say about the activities being undertaken. However, as your participation is not anonymised you may prefer not to comment after you have completed the activities. We would encourage time for self-reflection after the activities, and you may find it helpful to make some personal notes to support your individual learning experience.

A message from Professor Bob Cryan, our Vice-Chancellor

The University of Huddersfield is deeply committed to equality, diversity and inclusion for all its students and staff. Our vision is to provide an inclusive learning and working environment in a culture of mutual respect and dignity, where all staff and students are valued for their contribution and able to reach their full potential. The Equality, Diversity and Inclusivity Framework 2020 - 2025 sets out the vision, objectives and strategy for equality, diversity and inclusion at the University. We have already embraced a number of initiatives to further support our Equality, Diversity and Inclusion journey. These include:

• Signing up to the Race Equality Charter (REC) in Autumn 2020.  The framework supports us in working towards positive improvements in representation and narrowing of racial inequalities across the University community.
• Becoming a member of the Stonewall Global Diversity Champions programme in 2019. We are committed to supporting our Lesbian, Gay, Bi, Trans and non-binary (LGBT+) staff and students and providing an inclusive and welcoming staff and student experience.
• Being a member of the Athena SWAN Gender Equality Charter since 1st October 2015 and in 2020 renewed its Bronze Award.
• As a Disability Confident Employer we are committed to improving how we recruit, retain and progress disabled people in order to further develop and maintain an inclusive and accessible environment.
• We have held an HR Excellence in Research Award since 2011 communicating our commitment to supporting the careers of researchers.

We welcome and support the development of staff networks which provide an opportunity for staff who share a protected characteristic to network, obtain peer support and share information.  They can also offer opportunities for staff to inform University policy on equality related issues and topics. Our current staff networks are:

• Lesbian, Gay, Bi, Trans*, Queer and Intersex + (LGBTQI+) Staff Network
• Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic Staff Network
• Staff Disability Network
• Women’s Staff Network
