Testimonials

I love the course: the content, flow, visuals, quizzes, user experience…these are all fantastic!

The training is excellent: it's very clear and exhaustive.

I have a great deal of knowledge about pay equity at the federal level but the testing did remind me of some things that I had kind of forgotten. Well done.

Achieving pay equity means:

  • Recognizing the right to equal pay for work of equal value for all workers.
  • Redressing the systemic gender-based discrimination in the compensation practices and systems of employers by addressing the undervaluation of women’s work and closing the gender wage gap within organizations.
