Gender Awareness Training

This course was incredibly helpful and has given me lots of knowledge about gender appropriate language and more confidence in using it both personally and professionally.

We deliver training for businesses and organisations in gender awareness. We can do this online or in person with options on session length available. Please fill in the form below for more information or to book.

Drawing upon our extensive experience in meeting the needs of the LGBTQIA community in creating accessible and inclusive events, and leading research in transgender equality, we have a range of training packages available. This training can support teams to build more equitable and inclusive policies and practices for trans and non-binary clients, customers and service users.

Our Gender Awareness Training sessions are pitched at different levels to support team members at different stages of learning and development. It is an excellent way for your organisation to develop practices that enhance Equity, Diversity and Inclusion.

Our training is delivered by one of Andro and Eve’s Gender Awareness Trainers who are highly experienced professional trainers and facilitators. For all sessions, participants are given a resource pack covering key information and links to further reading after the session.

If you have specific aims in mind that might not be covered in the sessions outlined below we can also offer bespoke training packages – please get in touch to book a free 30 minute consultation. Our training sessions are:

Gender Awareness Training – Foundation Session

Length: 3 Hours (including 2 breaks)
Delivery: Online or in Person
Numbers: Up to 20 participants

This session is designed to build the foundations of knowledge – helping organisations who want to support teams to build more equitable and inclusive policies and practices for trans, non-binary and gender minoritised clients, customers and service users.

Topics covered include language and terminology, intersectionality, non-binary identities, gender in a global context, feminism, key dates for LGBTQ+ liberation, transgender health and equality and the law. We use practical exercises and group discussions to help participants relate to the subject and develop their understanding. 

A really valuable session – it covers the legal and practical aspects (and flaws!) and discusses ways forward. It encourages empathy and reflection. Really well facilitated.

Gender Beyond the Binary

Length: 2.5 Hours (including 1 break)
Delivery: Online or in person

This session looks at the experiences of people who are non-binary and gender expansive within the UK and in a global context. This session can help teams build more equitable and inclusive policies and practices for those who are gender expansive or non-binary.

Topics covered in this session include language and terminology, intersectionality, non-binary identities, gender in a global context, feminism, lived experiences of non-binary people and transgender health and equality and the law.

A 1 hour version of this session for up to 30 people can also be delivered online which explores language and terminology and what it is like for non-binary people living in the UK today.

Gender Awareness: Going Further 

Length: 2.5 Hours (including 1 break)
Delivery: Online or in person 
Numbers: Up to 20 participants

This session is aimed at those who have already undertaken our Gender Awareness Training Foundation Session or who have already undertaken LGBTQ+ Awareness Training in the last two years and can be delivered online or in person. 

The Going Further session is designed to deepen participants’ knowledge, further increasing the confidence of participants to support trans, non-binary and gender minoritised people in professional and social situations.   

Topics include further exploration of language and terminology around sex and gender, the coloniality of gender, the importance of trans stories, and some of the most pressing in today’s conversations around trans and non-binary people’s rights. Those issues include healthcare for trans adults, gender-affirming care for young people and access to sports and single-sex services.

It was a lot of fun and really informative. I feel much more confident in my knowledge and feel I am better able to oppose outdated opinions and be an ally to the trans community.

Brilliant training course, good to know more about the history so you are able to empathise. Would recommend the training within work as it helps to start the conversation to bring change, big or small. It’s a start!
