Who's the course for?
This course is restricted to staff at Spindogs.
This is an introduction and awareness course so anyone who would like to know more about gender and sexual diversity would learn a lot.
Why do I need to book this course?
Have you ever asked yourself (or others)...
What is gender and sexual diversity all about?
How many genders are there?
Which pronouns should I use?
What words are appropriate (or not) and what do they all mean (including LGBTQIA+)?
What steps do people take to transition?
If you have, or maybe you've asked yourself something similar, then come and learn the basics and so much more at a gender and sexual diversity awareness training course with Nick.
Where's the course taking place?
This course is delivered in person (yes, we're excited to be in person too) AND online (hybrid).
Please pick how you will be attending from the options when registering for your space.
Do I need to bring anything with me?
Just yourself. You can of course bring any questions you have - spoiler alert... Nick always starts the sessions by asking if you have any specific questions you would like answered during the course, so put him to the test and bring a list.
Are there any pre-course requirements?
None! This is the introductory awareness session. You won't need any prior knowledge to attend, but if you have done courses on gender and sexual diversity in the past, this is also a great refresher course. The field is moving very quickly, and the terminology is forever advancing.
