Workshops & Training | Tania Gerard Digital

Training that actually changes behaviour.
Not just ticks a box.

51% of neurodivergent employees have already taken time off because their workplace wasn't built for them. Untrained managers aren't neutral, they're actively losing you people. Sessions from £297, built around your actual company, not a generic slide deck.

Untrained managers are already costing you.

Not hypothetically. These are the numbers behind every team that's never had this training.

A real case, not a hypothetical

Hogger v Genesis PR (2026)

An employee received nearly £35,000 after a successful harassment claim, her manager had described her as "disorganised and uncommitted," traits the tribunal accepted were linked to her ADHD.

Total award: £35,000

No policy was broken here. No formal process failed. Someone said something ordinary in a normal performance conversation, without knowing it was discrimination. That's exactly what this training exists to prevent.

Leadership Teams

You want your managers to handle disclosure conversations and accommodation requests with confidence, not guesswork, and you want it demonstrated, not just discussed.

🤝

HR & People Teams

You're building or refreshing your inclusion training, and you want something that actually changes how people behave day to day, not a compliance tick-box everyone forgets by Friday.

👥

Marketing & Content Teams

You want your team to understand WCAG 2.2 and accessible content in plain language, and to see why it improves performance, not just why it avoids risk.

Choose your session.

Every session is built around your company's actual context, not a generic slide deck.

Takeaway resources

Your team leaves with something usable, not just a memory of a session that happened.

I don't teach from a textbook.
I teach from having lived it.

I spent a decade in digital marketing, rising to Head of Digital, before I understood why so much of that world felt like it wasn't built for a brain like mine. The systems I was working inside were designed to exclude, not just the disabled and neurodivergent customers on the other end, but me.

So I got certified, and built the training I wished someone had given my managers.

When I run your session, you're not getting a theorist reading from slides. You're getting someone who has sat exactly where your staff are sitting.

  • CPACC Certified, International Association of Accessibility Professionals
  • ADHD & Life Coach Training, ADD Coach Academy (ADDCA)
  • TEDx Speaker, "Make your marketing accessible"
  • UK Parliament ADHD Champion & ADHD UK Ambassador

  • Delivered training to groups of 15 to 300

Questions people usually ask.

Can workshops be delivered virtually?+

Yes. Every workshop is available in person or virtually, with the same materials and level of interaction either way. In-person sessions may carry a small travel supplement outside the East Midlands.

How many people can attend?+

Sessions have been delivered to groups from 15 to 300. Pricing above covers standard team sizes, get in touch for larger group or multi-session pricing.

How quickly can we book a session?+

Workshops can usually be booked within 2 to 4 weeks depending on your date preference. The Inclusion Power Hour can often be scheduled faster since it's a shorter, 1:1 format.

What sectors do you work with?+

Public sector, healthcare, hospitality, agencies, charities and corporates. The principles of neuroinclusion and accessibility apply everywhere, the delivery is tailored to your specific context and constraints.

What if we need something more than a single workshop?+

If you're looking for ongoing embedded support rather than a one-off session, take a look at the Interim DEI Director option, it's built for exactly that.
