How To Deliver DEI Training That Drives Real Change

Effective DEI training engages learners and virtually puts them in real situations to build empathy and understanding.

You can’t impact learners with DE&I training that only states text, definitions, and policies. Effective DEI training engages learners and virtually puts them in real situations to build empathy and understanding. WILL Interactive will lead a webinar discussing the latest methodologies for creating the most watchable and impactful DEI training – training that both impresses the allies and wins over the skeptics. They’ll also cover the latest research on how to find and deliver training that actually spurs attitudinal and behavioral shifts.

Join us for this complimentary webinar sponsored by WILL Interactive. Your hosts, Jennie Eng, Senior Screenwriter, and Jeffrey Hall, Chief Creative Officer, will take you on a one-hour journey through the ins and outs of instructional storytelling for maximum ROI. This webinar will equip you with the resources to search for quality training that engages learners and delivers tangible impact. By the end of the hour, you will feel empowered to change the culture of your organization.

Key Takeaways:

  • How to earn employees’ trust around DEI issues.
  • Placing DEI learning content in the context of real life decisions.
  • Employing instructional storytelling to optimize impact (especially for reluctant learners.)
  • Understanding the role of entertainment/watchability as a key factor for DEI training success.
