genU Training is committed to creating a respectful and inclusive environment for all learners. As part of our registration as an RTO, we are required to report certain demographic data, and the systems we currently use limit some response options. While these questions are a legal requirement and do not affect the quality of training we deliver, we acknowledge that they may not fully capture the diverse range of identities and experiences, particularly regarding gender, disability, legal and preferred names and employment status.
To better support our inclusive community, we may ask for additional information during the Pre-Training Review Interview, including your preferred name, gender identity, disability, or other relevant details. This ensures we meet reporting requirements, provide appropriate learning supports, and communicate with you in a way that aligns with your preferences. Your input is valued and helps us create a learning experience that respects and reflects who you are.
