A muddled message: on the one hand, the main thing is how the behaviour makes you feel and you should definitely speak up – but then, if you do speak up you might find yourself having to justify whether you're "genuinely negatively affected" or if you are responding in that way "because of prejudice", so you should examine your own behaviour and shut up. If you do try to talk to the person who you feel is harassing you, it's up to you to do it carefully and not make things worse. So, do speak up, but don't actually speak up. Finally I don't believe there is any legal requirement for anybody to treat anybody else with "kindness" at work. Respect, dignity, professionalism are all essential, but this is not the same as kindness. Overall this training left me with more questions and no answers at all.

i found the course informitive

essential to those working in any environment

Again as times change its essential we keep up to date and understand the needs and requirements in diverse environments

Poor choice of examples

Only one example was given of a man harassing a women despite 60% of women experiencing sexual harassment compared to 40% of men. The other examples were a women harassing a man or a man harassing a man. There was also no example of sexual comments being made to women by men which is (from my experience) the most common form of sexual harassment for women.

Good course

Good course, found it interesting

Clear information, presented in a sensitive way

A good overview of what is a tricky subject

Good

Difficult subject which I left to last as I was a bit worried but they tackled it sensitively

Hard subject left to last

Got the subject across well in a sensitive way

Informative

Very informative and engaging. Good graphics, good length, good amount of questions

Far too heteronormative!

Useful for many in the status quo work environment i.e. with one’s regular colleagues but this “course” takes no account of how to handle harassment from customers who come in to our (any) shops !
