Description

Course Overview:

Enabling people of different beliefs to work together in harmony is essential for any organisation that wants to get the best from all of its employees and cater to a diverse client base.

The Equality Act 2010 makes it illegal to discriminate against employees, job seekers or trainees on the grounds of religion or belief, or lack thereof. With the UK enjoying greater religious diversity than any other country in the European Union, the challenge of enabling different beliefs to work together is a particularly important one. Developed in partnership with FaithWise, this course provides guidance on best practice and emphasises the value of a religiously diverse and inclusive workplace.

Learning outcomes:

This course will give a better understanding of:

  • employers’ and employees’ obligations under the Equality Act 2010 and certain behaviours that might be unlawful
  • the variety of religions and beliefs in the UK today
  • the benefits of having a religiously-diverse workforce
  • the right of employees with no religion to be respected and treated no less favourably than their religious colleagues
  • the knowledge and skills necessary to work successfully as part of a diverse team.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
