Absolutely, but we require each individual to register and participate separately. The certificate is per individual, not per company. This is to avoid a situation where an employee moves onto another company but the original company maintains the certificate, even though no other staff have been trained.

Yes, of course! Please email info {at} theequalityinstitute {dot} com to discuss.
