Through real-world scenarios, practical tools, and guided reflection, this training provides a strong foundation for building inclusive, productive, and emotionally healthy work environments. Content is tailored to the unique demands of accounting and related professional services, with guidance scaled to suit practices of all sizes.

Interactive exercises, practical examples, and assessments are integrated throughout the microcredential to reinforce learning and ensure a practical understanding of accounting principles. The training is organised into 5 modules to make it easy to find what you need when you need it.
