Feedback from people who have completed our training
"Thank you so much to Dr Nina for providing an incredibly powerful and engaging training on sexual harassment in the workplace. On what can be a very sensitive topic, having such a qualified and highly credible external professional deliver the training I thought was really important"
"I definitely feel more equipped now to handle situations as and when they come up"
"I am so glad organisations like yourselves exist, to help reiterate the zero tolerance approach to sexual harassment, and other related and non-related issues, that occur not just in the workplace, but very much outside of it also. It was a great refresher to understand the importance of being a bystander and speaking out. I think the course was delivered in a really healthy, calm and engaging way, so thank you very much."
"The training was excellent, delivered in a very clear way, with clear expectations and a call to action. The content was delivered with great care to the sensitivity of the subject"
"Raising the bar of how sexual harassment is handled in the workplace!"
