Elearning

Rainbow Resource Centre is excited to offer a new way to get 2SLGBTQ+ DEI training to every member of your team as quickly and efficiently as possible. With more businesses seeing the benefits of making their workspaces and policies more inclusive, it can be difficult to get everyone the training they need when they need it.

Rainbow’s new eLearning courses, developed by professionals and based on decades of 2SLGBTQ+ learnings, are focused on the social issues happening right now. This new format allows you to buy licenses for your whole team, letting them learn at their own pace while giving you the ability to track their progress. eLearning is a great solution for onboarding, responding to workplace incidents, and informing ongoing policies.
