Description
This online Misogyny Awareness course provides you with the knowledge you need to identify and tackle misogynistic behaviour that might be experienced in the workplace.
Sexism and misogyny have damaging effects on women. It’s not just the mental burden of experiencing derogatory comments in-the-moment, but also the long-term impact it can have on their wellbeing, behaviours and life choices.
Misogyny simply shouldn’t have a place in the workplace. We need to identify and tackle these behaviours so that we can mitigate or prevent the harm that can be caused.
Why take this Misogyny Awareness training course?
Misogynistic behaviour has no place at work or in life. 80% of women and 85% of men have witnessed sexism in the workplace, this course has been designed to highlight the affects this form of behaviour has.
10% of employees have witnessed or experienced sexual harassment but 49% of them did not report it, the training explains the importance of misogynistic behaviour being reported and stamped out.

I recently completed the Food Hygiene course and found it very informative and easy to follow. The course explained important food safety practices clearly, including proper food handling, storage, cleaning, and preventing cross-contamination. The content was well-structured and practical, making it relevant for anyone working with food. I feel much more confident in understanding my responsibilities for maintaining high hygiene standards. Overall, I would highly recommend this course to anyone looking to improve their food safety knowledge.

Course was very in depth and brought out all salient points without it being too difficult to take in. I know this was an online course but it would be good if you could buy printed book detailing all that is on the course. This would make for easy reference when needed.
