Prerequisites

What people are saying

“I can honestly say that the bullying module was the best workplace education I’ve received in this area. I particularly appreciated the emphasis on the role of bystanders in preventing/stopping bullying, the statement that letting bullying happen around you is equivalent to condoning it, and that the definitions of bullying and harassment lie in the experience of the target rather than the intentions perpetrator. I would recommend this module to workplaces everywhere.” Anna

“The self-paced course online was great and useful, especially to understand a bit more about the difference between harassment and bullying. A very important topic and I feel I know more now than before I started the course.” Carina
