Course Description

This BYTSYZ online course will enable students to understand the concepts of equality and diversity and enable them to understand peoples' rights and responsibilities in relation to these concepts.

During their study the student will gain an understanding of the values and beliefs that underpin human diversity and learn to identify the range of human characteristics that create such diversity. There will be an exploration of how negative views of human diversity can lead to stereotyping and prejudice.

The course will examine the traits of discrimination enabling the student to differentiate between direct and indirect discrimination, which will lead the student into exploring harassment and victimisation and the impact this can have on individuals. A key focus is about achieving anti-discriminatory practice and enabling the student to recognise and confront discriminatory practice in others.

There is an important examination of the Human Rights Act and the legislation that serves to maintain equality and ensure the acceptability of human diversity.

At the end of the study the student will be encouraged to take personal action and develop a personal action plan to enhance their equality and diversity practice. BYTSYZ encourages the participation of line managers in the development and evaluation of this plan.

Customer reviews about online course Certificate in Equality and Diversity Level 3 ...

Sheila Davenport from Grantham (07-02-2011)
Each module of the Equality and Diversity level 3 online course was easy to understand and I enjoyed the fact that I could study at my own pace and also take as many trial assessment as I wanted to in order to feel confident in passing each module. Would definitely chose this way of studying again in the future!

Anna Falcucci from Ipswich (03-01-2011)
I have recently become involved with the company's Equality and Diversity policy and wanted to gain some confidence in the subject area as I had like most people a basic understanding, but knew there were areas I needed to understand more on, so I requested further training and after some reasearch found the BYSTYZ course, which my employer has paid for to allow me the opportunity to further my understanding, but to also trial the course to see if we can then role the course out to all staff members.
I found the Equality and Diversity Level 3 online course very easy to follow, made me think and do some research to better understand what my company offers. I feel more confident in my understanding and will make a recommendation to my employer to look at roling the course out to all employees. The course offered insight to the laws surrounding Equality and Diversity without feeling totally overwhelmed by the subject area.
I will be making the recommendation to my employer to start rolling the course out to my colleagues and would certainly recommend to others as a way to broaden your knowledge and outlook.
