Description

Welcome to the intriguing world of unconscious bias and perception. In this course, you will uncover the hidden biases that shape our thoughts, behaviours, and decision-making processes. Through a series of comprehensive modules, you will gain a deep understanding of unconscious bias and its impact on our professional lives.

The course begins by exploring the concept of unconscious bias, delving into its definition, manifestations, and the underlying cognitive processes that give rise to biases. Next, you will unravel the origins of biases, examining how societal influences and cultural conditioning contribute to forming biases in our minds.

Building upon this foundation, you will discover the various unconscious biases commonly observed in the workplace. From affinity to stereotype bias, you will learn to recognise and differentiate between biases, equipping yourself with the knowledge to address and mitigate their effects.

The course also explores the intricate relationship between biases and perception. You will explore how biases influence our interpretation of information, experiences, and interactions. By understanding this dynamic, you will gain valuable insights into the potential pitfalls and challenges posed by biases in the workplace.

Furthermore, the course introduces strategies and techniques to recognise, avoid, and mitigate unconscious biases. Finally, you will explore individual and structural interventions that can be implemented to foster a more inclusive and equitable work environment.

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.
