At Upskilla, we believe that diversity and inclusion are critical to our success, and we are committed to creating a learning environment that values and respects the unique qualities and experiences of all our students and staff. We strive to create an inclusive community where everyone feels welcomed, valued, and supported, regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, age, religion, disability, or any other characteristic that makes us unique.

To that end, we have developed the following diversity and inclusion policy for both our students and staff:

​

1. We embrace diversity: We recognise and respect the unique qualities and experiences that each individual brings to our community. We are committed to creating an environment where everyone feels welcomed and included, regardless of their background.

2. We promote equity and fairness: We are committed to providing equal opportunities for all students and staff to learn and grow. We strive to create an environment that is free from discrimination and harassment of any kind, and we take any reports of such behaviour seriously and investigate them thoroughly.

3. We prioritise inclusivity: We actively seek to create a learning environment that is accessible to all students and staff. We are committed to providing reasonable accommodations to students and staff with disabilities to ensure they can fully participate in our programs. We also strive to create an environment where students and staff feel comfortable sharing their ideas, opinions, and perspectives.

4. We celebrate differences: We recognise that diversity comes in many forms, and we strive to celebrate and learn from these differences. We believe that our differences make us stronger, more creative, and more innovative, and we encourage our students and staff to embrace their unique qualities and share them with the community.

5. We hold ourselves accountable: We regularly assess our policies and practices to ensure that they align with our commitment to diversity and inclusion. We hold ourselves accountable for creating a learning environment that is inclusive and welcoming to all students and staff.

​

We understand that building a diverse and inclusive learning environment is an ongoing process, and we are committed to continuously improving our practices to create a community where everyone can thrive.
