Disability Awareness Training

Create an Inclusive, Accessible and Equal Workplace

Disability Awareness Training is designed to help organisations better understand how to recruit, support and retain disabled people, ensuring that workplaces are inclusive, accessible, and fair for everyone.

Every organisation should have an equal opportunities policy that guarantees disabled individuals are given the same chances as non-disabled people. This CPD-accredited Disability Awareness Training provides the knowledge, confidence and practical tools needed to turn policy into meaningful action.

What Is Disability Awareness Training?

Our Disability Awareness Training introduces the Social Model of Disability, as presented by Toucan’s founder, shifting the focus away from impairment and toward removing barriers in the workplace.

This training helps employers, HR professionals, managers and teams understand how organisational practices, environments and attitudes can either enable or disable individuals at work.

What You’ll Learn

This Disability Awareness Training course explores:

• The different types of disabilities you may encounter in the workplace

• How disabilities can impact individuals at work, including hidden and fluctuating conditions

• Practical strategies for creating an inclusive working environment

• How to make recruitment practices accessible to all candidates

The training is grounded in lived experience and real-world workplace scenarios, making it both practical and impactful.
