This course offers care coordinators one hour CEH.
Although implicit bias affects everyone, it's important to know about it so we can move towards equitable professional relationships with the people and families we serve.
You will take 2 implicit bias tests on the Harvard University Project Implicit website. These tests are completely confidential. SDS does not receive any results of your tests or any information from the testing website. They each take about 10-15 minutes to complete. Then you will answer 2 self-reflective questions in the Academy course. You are NOT required to report the results of your bias tests.
Harvard's Project Implicit tests are free, confidential, publicly available, do not gather personal data, and are widely used in training for the social services, education, law enforcement, and health care science fields.
