Unconscious Bias online training for all staff which is accessed via Civil Service
Learning forms part of the Civil Service Learning offer. Although we pay a yearly
subscription cost for all Civil Service Learning, we are not able to provide a breakdown
of spend for the required Unconscious Bias online training for all staff accessed
via Civil Service Learning.</p><p>In addition to online training, in 2019-20 we held
and paid for face to face Unconscious Bias workshops as part of Senior Civil Service
and management training programmes.</p><p>Whilst our records show a spend of £12,234
for April 2019 to March 2020, learning on Unconscious Bias is built into other learning
programmes, such as our line management training offer. This includes workshops on
‘Leading Inclusive Teams’ and ‘Building Effective Teams’. It is not possible to extract
the amount spent on Unconscious Bias where this forms part of a broader training offer.</p><p>
