Training for Your Workforce

The following topics are available for onsite or webinar training with your workforce. For cost and availability, please contact Darla Wilkerson, Executive Director at darla@disabilityin-gkc.org
​

Disability Awareness Training

​This is our basic general awareness training. A great place for any company to start as they build a more inclusive work culture.

Disability awareness is focused on building a foundation of mindfulness for attendees by using information on employment statistic for people with disabilities, a basic understanding of unconscious bias, myths and misconceptions about disability, accommodations, interview tips and disability etiquette. This training is designed for general employee training, newly hired employees and those who are responsible for diversity strategies within the company.
​

Disability Inclusion in the Workplace and Managing Employees

This training is designed for hiring managers, front line supervisors and others who manage employees.

​An excellent presentation that addresses the primary challenges managers face on a daily basis. How to communicate, how to interact,
how to address accommodations, and learning what other managers say about employees with disabilities. This training will give attendees
“safe place” to ask those tough questions and get direct feedback to help strengthen skills when managing workers and creating a more inclusive work culture.
​ 

Return to Work - Strategies for Supporting Employees

This training complements a company’s standard operating procedures.

It addresses how managers can utilize the interactive process, be supportive, and help the employee create a return to work plan that helps lead to a successful transition. ​This does not address worker's compensation issues, but rather address key indicators for a successful return to work.
