Be Trans Aware.

Transgender and non-binary inclusivity training for future-thinking, client-facing businesses.

Engaging, expert-led inclusivity training that’s bespoke to your business.

 

As a professional in a service industry, you already know how absolutely crucial client experience is to the success of your business. It’s the difference between one client’s glowing five-star review and another’s pang of dissatisfaction (and subsequently, your loss of business).

Exceptional customer service is what every business aims for, but is there a chance that you’re letting down and losing the business of a key demographic?

People who may be transgender and non-binary are ready and waiting for businesses who can offer excellent customer service – without the side order of invalidation, discomfort and lack of safety.

Be Trans Aware’s range of comprehensive courses and inclusivity training empowers professionals and teams with industry-leading know-how and best practice.

Discover how you can offer the same incredible calibre of service to your transgender, non-binary and LGBTQIA+ clients today.
