About Us

Heartland DEI Compliance Consulting

Our training programs and delivery systems provide programs that deliver the knowledge necessary for employees to understand their role in supporting a DEI workplace.  We recognize that knowledge alone is not enough.  Besides improving knowledge on the value of diversity, equity and inclusion our methodology also includes experiential learning where managers and supervisors are given the opportunity to put the knowledge to practice.  This is the main component in changing workplace behavior to reflect the kind of behavior that is supportive of a diverse workplace.  Our training programs will generate reports for our clients to ensure all employees have completed the required training and have successfully passed the quizzes required for certification.  The programs are available for your onboarding process for new employees or contract employees.  Depending on your contractual agreements with your suppliers, these programs can be available to these stakeholders as well.

Our knowledge-based delivery system provides just-in-time training via iPads, laptops, iPhones, and Androids.  It allows companies flexibility on how to manage employees completing the training as well as saving companies money and time for employees to complete required training.

The manager/supervisor classroom training will give your management staff training on additional skill sets needed to support and sustain your DEI efforts.  These topics include coaching skills, how to support the behaviors that support diversity, and how to link these desired behaviors to your company’s performance management process.
