Hi everyone, thank you for tuning in to today’s webinar. If you have any questions or are experiencing any tech issues, please feel free to message me in the chat.

Hi everyone! Thanks for joining us today.

Evan, could you put that training option in the chat please

what was that HR download?

Can some of the resources you all have shared be included in the follow up email please? Thanks

I would appreciate it if Anastasia could share the link for the Trauma Resource for Community that she referenced. Thanks!

With these micro courses, do you manage to get milestones in? Here we are concerned with having learners for longer. Is that a concern with you Evan? How do you handle it?

(1) A Gender Knowledge consultant. (2) HR Downloads, which is a staff training support program that uses primarily online videos (but it does cost some money). (3) A Youtube video, just search “What is Gender?” And find one that works (any ignore anything by Jordan Peterson or Joe Rogan, lol). And then defiantly debrief as a staff. 🙂

This is a great resource for 2SLGBTQIA+ training that is super accessible. There is a facilitator guide and participant package, for anyone wanting to incorporate these learning activities into their services. https://thesafezoneproject.com/resources/

@Jennifer. Yep, for all of out micro learning we still get milestones. We use the ones about managing learning milestone (which we complete by having a simple verbal conversation about their tech literacy goals) and the basic tech ones (in Ontario, it’s the “log-in to a website” milestone.)

@Travis: thanks! Good resource for sure.

@Evan thanks!

I might shoot you an email with follow up questions on this : )

Looking forward to it!

These connections build so much trust and have the potential to generate meaningful literacy activity between agencies and between clients to support each other.

We don't have the guide I was referring to on the website right now but I will share the pdf copy which Julia can email everyone

Can the presenters emails come up again

Thank you Anastasia!

Inter-sector connections are so important. They are referral partners in disguise.

Ya, very true Wendy

Love the capacity building you are describing Travis.

Any suggestions on how to start creating a partnership with Indigenous groups? Our rural community has 3 different communities and not much work has been done to bridge relationships with any of them.

I agree Wendy. We also give other service providers the gift of having a literacy lens in their work.

Absolutely Nancy, and Calgary Learns does such a great job at that!

@Sandy: Maybe a community wide-literacy day (food, kids games, prizes, etc.)? That way you can situate yourself as place/help/service for everyone.

Thank you for that suggestion, Evan.

We have a partnership with Penticton Indian Band if you want to connect, mindyr@neilsquire.ca

Thank you, Mindy! I will connect with you:)
