Training for Producers and Production Companies

Aimed at decision makers in the screen industries, this free course offers guidance and support for production companies and producers looking to become more inclusive in the way they work with the trans community. Through this course, you’ll learn how to support the trans people in your teams and actively ensure your workplace and policies are trans inclusive.
