| Diversity Now | PRINT | | New eLearning Programme at Queen’s University |
 Belfast, Northern Ireland (UK), May 2010 – eLearning provider Aurion Learning has been commissioned to design and deliver the equality-and-diversity eLearning programme 'Diversity Now' for Queen's University staff.
Speaking about the development, Paul Browne, Equal Opportunities Manager at Queens says, "We're really excited about our Diversity Now eLearning programme. Previously, we delivered full-day equality-and-diversity workshops to our staff. However, this wasn't the most efficient training method as it took a considerable amount of time.
Diversity Now provides us with a much more time and-cost-efficient solution to the provision of equality-and-diversity training. We are now able to provide training to our 3,700 staff members over a period of months and monitor staff uptake to produce compliance reports. We've also been able to cut costs (trainers, travel, room hire, reduced time spent away from desk) and deliver training in an environmentally friendly manner."
Dr Maureen Murphy, Managing Director of Aurion Learning, comments, "The major challenge for us was to develop an online equality-and-diversity programme that would be equally relevant to all staff, from porters to senior professors. Queen's were very clear that they didn't just want to focus on the legislation - our eLearning programme really had to make staff think and change any negative behaviours and attitudes. We're delighted that feedback from users has been very positive."
