What is the course about?

Partnering with the Business Disability Forum, Kier Highways will talk about their journey to becoming a Disability Confident Leader. 

With 1 in 5 of the UK population having a disability, it's vital we recognise the value of disabled people as employees and as our customers. With 83% of disabilities being acquired during our working lives, this is not just a recruitment issue. This is a live online course. We will contact you with joining instructions at least 24 hours before your course starts.
