Our Training Courses

At On The Level, we believe that effective training goes beyond ticking boxes—it’s about unlocking potential at every level, and creating lasting impact. Our approach combines deep expertise in Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) with a strong focus on leadership development. By addressing the challenges of today’s workplace with practical, actionable insights, we help leaders and teams thrive in dynamic environments.

What makes our training truly unique is the breadth and depth of our offering, and the expertise and passion behind it. Covering everything from broad Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) principles, to specialised support for under-represented groups, and advanced leadership development - all tailored  your business needs.

We had the pleasure of working with Claire and her team at On The Level to deliver a series of five diverse training sessions, all of which were held online. From ‘Active Bystander Interventions’ to ‘Becoming a Menopause Friendly Employer’, each course was thoughtfully designed and expertly delivered to meet the specific needs of our organisation.

On The Level’s ability to tailor the content and make it relevant to our teams was exceptional, especially with the ‘Leadership for Ethnic Minority Leaders’ and ‘Overcoming Barriers to Career Development from a Queer Perspective’ sessions, which had a lasting impact on our attendees. The feedback from participants has been overwhelmingly positive, with many highlighting how empowering and practical the training was.

We’re currently looking at more courses, to be delivered in person this time, and I’m confident they will be just as impactful.

I highly recommend On The Level for their professionalism, flexibility, and deep expertise in diversity and inclusion, and we’re excited to continue working together in the future.
